Firepower is king

You can test the gun in Norberto's studio, but you can only try the feel because the room is too small and the target is only five meters away. In fact, you only need to pick it up and fire two shots.

As for the test accuracy, I'm sorry, I don't have that condition.

Gao Guang picked up the Browning pistol that Norberto forced on him. This was a modern improved version, double-action, and the ammunition capacity was increased by one round to fourteen rounds. However, this was an improvement in the early 1990s. This version is still an all-steel pistol, so the first feeling is that this gun is heavier, and much heavier.

Let’s compare the Glock 17, the most common pistol. The Glock 17 uses a polymer body, so it weighs 62 kilograms. The M17 that Gao Guang has been using weighs 85 kilograms. The Browning High Power BDA weighs 99. Kilogram, plus bullets, it’s more than one kilogram.

Some people like the heavy feel, but Gao Guang doesn't like it because he is used to using light pistols.

However, the handle of Browning's pistol is a little thinner. Although the difference is not big, it does feel more comfortable to hold. The classic old gun still has its unique charm.

Gao Guang had shot this kind of classic old gun before, but he had never touched a gun at all at that time, so the slight difference in feel between various guns was still a slight difference in the feeling when shooting, and he had no ability at all. differentiate.

It’s different now. Now Gaoguang is considered an expert in using pistols. Once he gets started, he can immediately feel the slightest difference.

"Shoot."

Norberto urged Gao Guang again. He didn't know what Gao Guang wanted to do by going back and forth to draw and retract his gun.

In fact, Gao Guang just wanted to feel the gun speed that was most important to him.

Finally, Gaoguang fired, and then he fired all 14 bullets.

The shooting feeling is not bad, but it also uses 9mm handguns. There is no big difference. However, the heavier gun body seems to be helpful in quickly adjusting the gun body posture, which can make the high-light rate of fire a little bit subtle. of strengthening.

For a gunner at the level of Gao Guang, any change cannot be too drastic. It is very difficult to make even a tiny bit of progress.

So after shooting fourteen shots, Gao Guang had to nod and said: "It's a good gun, but it's far worse than the gun I'm using now." Norberto wasn't in a hurry or angry, he just smiled slightly. , said: "Do you know why handmade guns like to be made on the basis of 1911? Do you know why I must let you use Browning 1935?"

"Why?"

"Because the prototype gun has an all-steel gun body, this is very important. Also, whether it is 1911 or 1935, these two guns are the basis for gunsmiths to use their imagination."

Gao Guang thought for a while and said: "It's just that modern guns have too little room for improvement, while these old guns have a lot of room for improvement. They have passed the patent protector period, are still common, and have various mature modification solutions, so they accept them." Welcome to the handmade gunsmith. You let me use a 1935. In fact, it has nothing to do with my hand shape. It’s just that you are good at modifying this gun.

?"

Why did Gao Guang accidentally tell the truth? Gao Guang felt a little regretful. Then he felt that he still wanted to modify the existing new gun instead of having to use an old gun to modify it, so he said these words.

Lloyd began to get nervous. He was afraid that Norberto would be angry, but Norberto was not angry. Instead, he smiled and said: "Who said I can only modify 1935? I can modify any gun, but you have something to say. Yes, the Browning is indeed my favorite prototype gun. In addition, the 1935 is the best for your hands. If you don’t believe it, try another gun.”

"No need, I have shot a lot of common guns. Well, what I want to say is, do I really have to modify my gun to use a 1935? Isn't Sig Sauer's P320 bad?"

Norberto stopped talking. He just walked aside quietly and took out a pistol that was obviously different from mass production from a drawer, a Browning 1935.

Whatever you say is false, you will know after a few shots.

Norberto handed the gun to Gao Guang and said with an extremely confident smile: "This is a Browning Powerful that I customized for a customer. It's not completely finished yet. You can try it."

The handle of this gun is made of wood, but apart from being more refined and the color of the gun body being changed, there are no other big differences.

But the feeling in hand is different. First, the gun is lighter, and then the grip of the gun handle is much more comfortable. I inserted a magazine into the gun, raised it casually, and fired two shots.

After these two shots, something bad happened. Gao Guang's eyes immediately widened, and then he couldn't help but let out a strange cry.

"Uh-huh..."

Gao Guang withdrew the gun in extreme surprise. Of course he would not be stupid enough to point the gun at himself, but he still couldn't help but be impulsive. He spread the gun flat in his hand, looked at the gun in his hand, and said in amazement: "This is an erection." Ronning 1935?”

The first feeling is that the recoil is too soft, and the second feeling is that the trigger is too comfortable. Gao Guang’s gun is already at the ceiling of mass production, and the craftsmanship and performance are at the ceiling level, but it is the same as the pistol in his hand that is not specially made for him. Compared to this, you can still feel the natural difference.

Top mass production, master craftsmanship, if you haven’t experienced them all, you won’t know the difference. The expert will know if there is one as soon as he takes action, and the highlight will be suppressed after two shots.

Lloyd could finally say to Gao Guang in a lecturing tone: "How do you think Norberto got the title of Gunslinger? Do you think any gunsmith can be called a Gunslinger? Do you know that Norberto has a gun?" How much is it worth? Let me tell you, not counting the value of the gun itself, Norberto’s handmade fee for making a pistol is US$100,000, starting price!”

When Lloyd said this before, I can’t say that I didn’t believe it at all, but I certainly wasn’t particularly convinced. But now I'm in high-gloss service, and I'm in awe-inspiring service.

No one needs to say anything, a good gun speaks for itself.

Gao Guang used a pilgrim-like mentality to finish the remaining bullets in the magazine.

There is no target, just casually shooting one shot after another, shooting very slowly, and feeling the feeling of shooting with your heart, that unique gun feeling.

Most people don’t know what a world of difference is because they don’t have the chance to experience it. Are the works of a super master like Norberto meant for ordinary people? Let alone shooting a few shots, I’m afraid they won’t even have the chance to take a look. Bar.

After the fight was over, Gao Guang stood there in silence for a long time. Finally, he sighed quietly and said: "It's over." Lloyd said in surprise: "It's over? What's over?"

Norberto smiled confidently and made a please gesture towards Gao Guang.

Gao Guang looked at Norberto and said sadly: "You ruined my ability to tolerate pistols. I used to think that I can shoot any gun that comes into my hand, and it's the same with any gun. But now, I just want to use this gun. I don’t want to touch any other gun.”

Lloyd smiled as if he had experienced it: "It doesn't matter, using Norberto's gun will not make you lower your level. It's just like eating junk food after eating delicious food will make you feel miserable, but junk food It will still fill your stomach.”

It's easy to go from being frugal to being frugal, but it's difficult to go from being frugal to being frugal. It's such a journey, and the highlights can't be returned.

Gao Guang respectfully returned Norberto's custom-made gun with both hands. Then he went to get a Glock, pulled out his M17, and started beating him randomly.

Fortunately, fortunately, the gun still works when I use it again, but I will never feel the same again.

I used to think that my gun was a top-notch product, but now I think it's just a tool I bought casually, and I can't put any more emotion into it.

Gao Guang silently put away the gun and said to Norberto: "When will the gun you gave me be ready..."

"Are you willing to use Browning 1935?"

"If you want, I can use anything, as long as you make it, even a plastic gun!"

Norberto smiled, then he looked at Lloyd and said: "Mad Dog's gun is very special. An ordinary pistol barrel cannot be used. I need a smoothbore barrel that can withstand ultra-high bore pressure, and I have to ensure that Durability, at least 10,000 rounds. This kind of barrel can’t be bought in a gun factory, and it’s impossible for me to make it myself, because I can’t open a furnace to make steel myself, so you have to solve this problem.”

Lloyd scratched his head, and then he whispered: "I'll think about it if it has been declassified or mass-produced."

"The one that Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and MIT Metallurgical Laboratory are cooperating to test is good. You used it the last time you helped someone customize it. Do you remember it?"

Lloyd was shocked and said: "That doesn't work, that really doesn't work! The person in charge of defense procurement at the Pentagon did it in the name of an experimental product. He just wanted to give himself a unique gun, but if you let him make it for commercial use, you Do not make jokes!"

"His use is a complete waste. It's just an extra collection. Mad Dog is different. Mad Dog has taste."

Gao Guang couldn't help but said: "Is it good? General, if it's good, how about helping to get a batch."

"Make a batch? A batch?"

Lloyd was angry, and he said angrily: "Do you know what that is? If you can get a batch of gun barrel steel, you have to take a big risk! Do you know what a top secret project is? Batch!"

Norberto whispered: "You also know that this project will definitely be finished. It is impossible for Congress to approve it. In the end, it will be kept as a technical reserve. Since we were able to get it last time, let's get more out. I'll give it to you. Let’s change the barrels and make some.”

Gao Guang lowered his voice involuntarily and said, "Yeah, let's get some out. If you need money, I'll do it."

Lloyd smacked his lips a few times. He seemed embarrassed, but in the end he finally said: "I can only try, but there is no guarantee that it will work. You understand, this is stealing the country's advanced military secrets."

Gao Guang's heart suddenly jumped and he said, "Is it so serious?"

Norberto said disapprovingly: "Okay, I just got the finished product, and it's not like I stole all the production and processing data. Even if I can analyze the ingredients, but I don't know the specific processing technology, it's useless to get the actual product." , what a leak."

Lloyd finally relented, and then he nodded: "Well, it must cost money anyway, and money is indispensable. Are you sure you are willing to spend this money?"

"How much?"

Lloyd shrugged and said: "I don't think anyone is willing to take this risk with less than two million. Although it is just a finished product, after all it is... you know."

Gao Guang has money, two million, which is nothing to worry about.

"I'll pay for it."

Gao Guang felt that the two million was well spent. He had money and didn't care how much he spent. As the best shooter, it would be nothing if he didn't have the most convenient gun.

Hearing that Gao Guang was willing to pay, Norberto smiled happily and said: "Very good, the most critical part is solved, then the rest is the manufacturing process, you don't have to worry about this, and you have to follow your own instructions Let’s make one, no, two guns. Now start making the mold according to your hand shape. This is the most important part of personal customization.”

Now Gao Guang was left with expectations, and he was impatient, so he immediately said in a hurry: "How long will it take to make it? Soon?"

Norberto thought for a while and said: "Half a year, if you want to speed it up, three months, three months with a gun."

Gao Guang was stunned, and then he said with a look of astonishment: "Can it be faster? As long as it is faster, anything will be fine. For example... can I add more money? Is that okay?
