Chapter 32: Changing Guns
Chen Ke followed Hall and Priskin into the weapons room, but he didn't have a long gun of his own.
Hall took his Saiga-12 shotgun and a sawed-off grenade launcher. He carried a brown satchel and stuffed ten boxes of No. 12 buckshot and eight explosive grenades into it.
Priskin, of course, took his "Baba Yaga" and a SOCOM MK23 pistol with an extended magazine. Unlike Hall, Priskin also brought a small handheld drill in addition to his weapons.
"You need a long gun, but we don't have time to customize it for you now, so just pick one at random." Pihom suggested.
"Chen Ke, my shotgun has the most favorable range of about 50 to 100 meters, and Priskin's gun is about 100 to 150 meters. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Hall said as he checked the weapons.
Chen Ke hummed, and his eyes searched on the rack on the other side of the wall, and he saw a very classic long rifle-M16.
Like the M1911, it was made by Colt.
He took the gun off the rack, unloaded the magazine, and pulled the bolt handle back to the bottom. He repeated it several times to confirm that there was nothing wrong with the gun.
Hall smiled, buried his head in organizing his equipment, and stuffed two stun grenades into his bag.
"You chose a good gun, but I want to remind you that this gun is an M16A2, which does not have a fully automatic shooting mode. It can only be semi-automatic single shot or three-shot burst." Pihom reminded.
"That's enough. Priskin's AK can provide medium-range fire suppression, and Hall's buckshot can take care of all the enemies closest to us. I just need to accurately point out and create pressure at a distance of 300 meters." Chen Ke said, grabbing a 5.56mm caliber rifle bullet from the bullet box and pushing it into the empty magazine one by one.
Hall and Pihom smiled at each other, knowing that they had found an expert.
"How is your accuracy?" Priskin interrupted and asked.
"This gun doesn't have a Picatinny rail, nor a 4x scope. If I only use mechanical sights, I can't guarantee that I can hit the target every time." Chen Ke said slowly.
This was the first time he touched a long gun after crossing over, but he had a very strong feeling that he used to be a precision shooter! Maybe not as accurate as a professional sniper, but not bad.
This M16A2 feels great in my hand. Although it is no longer a very advanced weapon, its retro and tough shape and simple and direct feel can definitely satisfy every gunner's desire for control.
"After I get this ticket, I will help you customize a super awesome precision rifle when I come back. You can name it now!" Priskin was straightforward and patted Chen Ke on the shoulder.
The three counted their equipment. With the sponsorship of Pihom, Chen Ke changed to a holster that could hold two pistols. Since this mission was very likely to be a fight on the street, the three wore plate bulletproof vests under their clothes.
"You won't encounter monsters this time. Your two pistols that shoot flame bullets are temporarily unusable. Unless you are willing to change bullets during the battle, I advise you to pack up your weapons and bullets." Hall suggested.
Hall's words make sense, but changing guns is not free. The weapons used by the postman are all military-grade products that have been "washed". They are not the same level as the civilian weapons discounted at Walmart, so even if the internal personnel of the organization change their guns and modify them, they will need to spend a sum of money.
Chen Ke thought while betting on the bullets. Now he has a total of three pistols on hand: M1911A1, Colt Python, and Glock 17.
Parker's M1911A1 is a serious psychic firearm that can shoot official psychic bullets. If it weren't for coincidence, there would be no way to get it, so it is Chen Ke's most cherished weapon. It fires .45 caliber bullets.
The Glock 17 that Chen Ke got from the black man is used to fire civilian psychic bullets, and is used with a silencer to lure the enemy and test the monster's strength. It is a typical 9mm caliber pistol.
The Colt Python revolver given by Pihom can be inserted with different psychic or ordinary bullets at any time. It is a high-powered weapon with excellent flexibility. It can be used to kill monsters or people, depending on your mood! It can be called a hand cannon when shooting .357 Magnum bullets.
The bullets used by these three guns are completely different. Every time Chen Ke goes out, he must bring three kinds of bullets, which is very cumbersome. Considering that psychic energy has six categories and eighteen properties, he will be overwhelmed by carrying bullets in the future.
Chen Ke is determined to unify the caliber of the bullets on his body, so that he can only carry one caliber of bullets, which not only increases the amount of available bullets in disguise, but also reduces the number of guns.
The first thing that needs to be abandoned is the Colt Python. After fighting with the big toad, he deeply realized the difference between the holy relic and the gun. At the same time, the properties of the bullet are more important than the caliber! And the experience of stuffing bullets into the barrel one by one is really terrible!
The M1911A1 psychic pistol is a weapon that cannot be discarded. It is a firearm produced by the Administration specifically for various monsters. It is impossible to get it on the market, so you have to carry it with you no matter what.
Chen Ke only wanted to carry two pistols and one type of pistol bullet. Although the psychic pistol can only fire the special bullets of the Administration, he also didn't want to carry different caliber bullets everywhere. The power of 9mm bullets was difficult to satisfy him. The recoil of Magnum was too large, and the kinetic power was slightly embarrassing compared with the holy relics. Only the .45acp bullet was a compromise, so he decided to choose another .45acp caliber pistol.
In addition to killing people, this gun is also used to shoot some civilian psychic bullets. It must have strong stopping power and penetration power, be able to penetrate soft bulletproof vests at close range, and the supply of ammunition cannot be too small. In short, for Chen Ke, this will be a versatile firearm. Replacing it with civilian psychic bullets can assist the holy relics in medium-distance containment, and using ordinary bullets can become a killing weapon.
Getting another M1911A1 is the best choice, but Chen Ke frowned slightly and denied this idea. He still hopes to get a new gun.
The M1911A1 is very classic, but it is already a very, very old gun. It is very bulky, and the ammunition capacity is not high enough. It is not convenient to carry with a long magazine.
Chen Ke wanted a modern enough weapon. At this time, he thought of a pistol that suited his needs very well: Walther PPQ .45
"Do you have PPQ here? .45 caliber." Chen Ke looked up and asked Pihom.
"Of course, I have guessed that you want to build your own weapon system with .45acp bullets. But I wonder why it is not 9mm or other calibers. You have many choices." Pihom was puzzled.
"I am interested in the penetration and stopping power of .45acp, and the recoil is also better than other larger caliber bullets." Chen Ke replied.
Pihom nodded, left for a while, and when he came back, he had a small black suitcase in his hand.
Chen Ke took the suitcase and opened it. It was a brand new all-black Walther PPQ .45. This gun has 12+1 rounds. The sleeve and barrel are treated with salt bath nitriding and have a Trifo coating. It is durable and a great pistol.
"If you want to kill this gun, all the bullets are mine." Pihom said.
Chen Ke nodded and took out 7 100-yuan bills and handed them to Pihom, but Pihom blocked them.
"Deduct it from the commission of this mission." He smiled.
"Okay, are you ready? The car won't wait for us for too long." Hall stood up at this time, and he was ready to go.
The three checked their weapons again. They were fully equipped and ready to do something.
"Do you want to ask Dom's people to be the driver?" Priskin asked.
"No, don't involve them for the time being. Let's deal with this matter and see what's going on." Pihom shook his head.
"Heinard will tell us. By the way, Chen Ke, you don't have a mask, just pick one and use it first." Hall loaded the weapon.
Hearing this, Pihom smiled and said, "Let him use mine first."
