Reborn Brazil as a Plutocrat

After firing two shots in succession, Fang Lang finally found the feeling. He turned the gun sideways and looked at it carefully. He didn't see anything unusual.

He bent down to hold the gun again and set the firing mode to burst.

Then came "Peng Peng Peng", three short bursts of rapid fire.

Feeling the beating of the muzzle and the force with which he pulled the trigger, Fang Lang felt that the recoil of the gun was not unacceptable.

After all, what I am using now are only the most basic design postures.

When he watched the videos of many special forces shooting in later generations, there was a shooting method called Mapugai shooting method, also called TB shooting method, which means you can press the upper part of the handguard with your thumb to reduce the muzzle jump.

shooting tactics.

Judging from the current gun test situation, using this tb shooting method can completely control the muzzle jump range.

But after all, it was a new gun, so he was not in a hurry.

After firing several short bursts in succession, Fang Lang ejected all the bullets in the magazine before withdrawing from the magazine.

Glancing at the target in the distance, Fang Lang can now see more clearly the 400-meter target. He can guarantee that all three short bursts will hit the target.

What does this mean? It means that the shooting accuracy of this rifle is very good.

At least so far, Fang Lang is very satisfied with this prototype rifle.

What he didn't know was that the firearms designer Ludwig Folger standing next to him looked very surprised.

It turned out that I only knew that my boss was a soldier, so it was normal for him to be familiar with weapons.

But now that he saw Fang Lang easily controlling a weapon that had just been trial-produced, it was beyond his expectations.

After all, this short-burst shooting method was something he had never thought of before.

He knew that many excellent machine gunners were accustomed to using this short burst design, but now it seemed that his boss had just figured out the best way to shoot this weapon as soon as he got started.

The soldiers and instructors who were resting not far away originally looked at Fang Lang without paying much attention, and were shooting one after another using an unusual shooting posture.

But after firing three single shots, this weapon, which is obviously a rifle, not a submachine gun, can easily complete the effect of three short bursts.

Everyone was stunned. Some people still didn’t quite understand what this weapon was used for.

It seems to have the same function as a submachine gun!

But there are also many understanding people present. After all, many fighters here have participated in European wars.

And many of the American instructors were outstanding in the war.

Although it is still just a test and they are not sure about the specific performance of this weapon, they can already vaguely feel that this weapon is different from the weapons they have come into contact with before.

Fang Lang did not pay attention to the opinions of the people around him, but felt the performance of this rifle with his heart.

He handed the old magazine to the person behind him, took out a new magazine filled with bullets, and clipped it into place with a click.

He pulled the bolt again and pulled the trigger directly at the target a hundred meters away.

Just listen to "da da da"

Continuous gunshots kept ringing out.

Fang Lang did not desperately lower the muzzle, but just used a little force to control the amplitude of the muzzle to a small range.

After firing a magazine in one shot, Fang Lang had a rough understanding of the weapon in his hand.

He ejected the magazine again and threw the gun to his adjutant Qi Qingshan.

"Qingshan, you can try the gun according to the shooting method I just shot.

First a single shot, then a short burst, and finally a burst.

See if you can hold the muzzle down.

Let me remind you that in burst mode, the muzzle jump will be larger, and the recoil will be about the same as 1 Garand.

Be careful."

The adjutant Qi Qingshan is also a veteran who participated in the European War. Test firing this new rifle will not cause any problems.

Standing behind him, Qi Qingshan was a little ready to move when he saw Fang Lang shooting.

After all, men! How many people don’t like guns?

What's more, this is an experimental firearm that has just been successfully trial-produced!

Therefore, Qi Qingshan took it without hesitation and said directly

"Yes, boss, let me try."

Fang Lang stood next to Ludwig Folger and watched Qi Qingshan test the gun.

When using a single shot, there is no problem.

It's not a big problem when shooting in short bursts, but when shooting in bursts, the accuracy has obviously been lost.

With two magazines, Fang Lang roughly understood the situation of this gun.

He turned his head and said to Ludwig Folger beside him

"It's a good gun, but there are two problems.

First of all, the bullet was wrongly selected, and the 762*63 rifle bullet should not be used.

This full-power bullet is too powerful, resulting in excessive recoil and muzzle jump.

Especially in burst mode, it is difficult to control the aim.

Therefore, I suggest you choose a medium-power bullet.

At present, we in Brazil do not have an independent bullet production line, nor do we have a mandatory uniform standard for bullets.

I hope you can design an intermediate-power bullet, and you can test it yourself as to which one is most suitable.

I don’t think there’s any problem with using 762 caliber, it’s lethal enough.

Second, as I said before, although you have tried every means to reduce the weight of the gun body.

But I think the weight needs to be reduced further.

After all, this kind of rifle consumes a lot of ammunition. If you use this kind of rifle, soldiers need to carry more ammunition.

This will greatly increase the weight of the soldiers.

In order to maintain combat effectiveness, it is necessary to continue losing weight.

Let me give you a suggestion. For some non-important parts, you can use a new material.

Those that have certain requirements for strength can be replaced by aluminum, and those that do not have requirements for strength can be replaced by plastic.

This will definitely help you lose a lot of weight."

Ludwig Folger didn't expect that his boss would discover so many problems and come up with solutions just by trying the gun once.

As an excellent firearms designer, he has never heard of the concept of intermediate-power bullets.

But since it is said that the 762*63 rifle bullet is a full-power bullet, it can be imagined that the intermediate-power bullet must be a bullet with less power than this full-power bullet.

Doesn’t the 792x33mm short bullet used by the German TG44 rifle perfectly meet this standard?

When he first designed this rifle, he considered using this short bullet directly.

But now in Brazil, he is very worried that the weapon he designed based on this kind of bullet will not be popular.

So I chose the most common ammunition in the Brazilian army.

"Boss, the medium-power bullet you mentioned,

Do you mean bullets like Germany’s 792*33 mm short bullet?”

Fang Lang didn't know how later generations specifically classified intermediate-power bullets, but he had a basic concept, that is, the bullets with power between rifle bullets and pistol bullets are intermediate-power bullets.

When Ludwig Folger heard what he said, his first reaction was that the length of this bullet seemed to be a bit different, but his caliber was 792 which was larger than the 762 used by A.

The length is 6 shorter than A's 39, but the caliber is a little thicker. When converted, the charge is probably about the same as A's 762*39.

It must be an intermediate-power bullet.

But he doesn't want to go out of his way and let the Brazilian troops use a special bullet alone. He runs a company, and the weapons he produces are ready to be sold all over the world.

All NATO countries around the world will use 762x51nat bullets in the future, and he does not want to take any detours.

Moreover, he wants to unify the bullets for rifles and machine guns in the future, which can reduce logistical pressure.

The 792*33mm short bullet is obviously not suitable for machine guns, so from this point of view, this kind of bullet was eliminated by Fang Lang.

Although the United States did not start developing the NATO standard 762x51nat bullet until 1950, as a reborn person, isn’t this an advantage?

Knowing that the entire NATO will use this kind of bullet in the future, why don't you go ahead of the world and get it right in one step!

Therefore, he said without hesitation

"Ludwig, the bullet you mentioned is indeed an intermediate-power bullet.

But the bullets you mentioned are not powerful enough. What I want is for the troops to use uniform bullets for their rifles and light machine guns.

I need you to help me develop a 762*51 intermediate power bullet.

In the future, all our rifles and light machine guns will use this bullet to reduce logistical pressure."

Upon hearing this, Ludwig Folger immediately understood what Fang Lang meant. It seems that a light machine gun will have to be developed based on this kind of bullet in the future!

For Ludwig Folger, who invented the G42 machine gun, there was certainly no problem.

He hopes that he will have the opportunity to develop more and more advanced weapons, so that his value can be reflected.

However, researching bullets is not a simple matter, and it is even more difficult to establish a complete bullet production line.

It seems that my task is very heavy!

After nodding heavily, Ludwig said

"No problem, boss, we will start organizing manpower to develop the bullets you mentioned when we get back.

But if you want to produce bullets on a large scale, it is not much easier than making firearms.

Maybe we need to recruit more people."

Fang Lang knew very well that Ludwig Folger was telling the truth. Even though the bullet seemed inconspicuous, in fact, producing it was far more difficult than making firearms.

Look at the Asan of later generations, they often say that they are the third largest military power in the world, and they have the ability to manufacture aircraft, tanks, aircraft carriers and the like.

But there was a problem with a small bullet. Although we now have certain bullet manufacturing capabilities, we cannot produce high-precision bullets at all, and we can only choose to import them from abroad.

If Fang Lang wants to manufacture and sell arms in the future, he must have his own bullet production capabilities.

Therefore, I nodded without hesitation

"No problem, feel free to recruit whatever kind of people you need. I only have one request.

We must allow our factory to have completely independent bullet production and development capabilities, do you understand?"

Ludwig Folger heard Fang Lang's words and nodded seriously. If he wants this small arms manufacturing factory to gain a foothold in the global arms market, it must have complete bullet production capabilities.

It seems that the only way to harvest wool is in Germany. After all, Germany is the easiest place to obtain technology and personnel.

If you don’t think of a solution from here, do you have to start from scratch?

This takes a lot of time.
