Chapter 12
Firearms Department.
Today, the topic of discussion is: Should the first standard rifle of the rabbit be a copy of the AK47 or the SKS semi-automatic rifle?
For this reason, the two sides divided into AK and SKS, and launched a fierce battle, arguing until their faces were red.
And the consultant of the bear, Marx, said with contempt:”Everyone, I advise you to waste less saliva!”
“Whether it is AK or SKS, Rabbit’s current industrial base cannot copy them.”
“It is better to buy from us honestly… save trouble and effort……”
“It is better to have it yourself than to have it from your parents!” Zhou Hua asked,”I hope Consultant Marx can give us some advice?”
Marx said arrogantly,”I said, no matter what rifle you imitate, your industrial level is not up to it.……”
“Don’t waste your energy.……”
As soon as he finished speaking,
Jiang Chen pushed the door open and walked in, saying domineeringly:”Who said that… You bears can do it, but we rabbits have no less brains than you.……”
“Isn’t it just a rifle?”
“Comrade Zhou Hua, we don’t need���Independent research and development is our way out……”
Independent research and development?
“Hahaha……”Max seemed to have heard the funniest joke:”Just relying on you… independent research and development?”
“Okay, I’ll wait and see.……”
After saying that, Marx slammed the door and walked out to show his anger.
In his eyes, without the help of the Russian bear, the rabbit is nothing. For a mechanical consultant and engineer like him, he must be given enough respect and even regarded as a god.
Today, he felt offended.
Seeing this, Zhao Tianming came up and said,”Director, the Russian bear came to help us, you must not offend them!”
“It is undeniable that the Russians have given us a lot of help, but most of the time what they gave us was outdated and backward technology!”
“We still have to serve them like a grandfather… So, the iron must be strong before it can be forged!”
Jiang Chen said in a heavy tone:”Comrades, the Russian bear looks down on us, but we must believe in ourselves.……”
“What the bears and the hawks can do, we rabbits…are no worse than them……”
“Isn’t it just a rifle? In the future, we will have to build airplanes, tanks, missiles, and atomic bombs.……”
“What’s the big deal about this difficulty?”
These few words made the gunsmiths present excited and full of enthusiasm!
Zhou Hua:”Director, independent research and development is our ultimate goal, but I think starting with imitation is also a good way out.……”
“That’s right!” Jiang Chen was not angry, but was optimistic about Zhou Hua.
As an overseas student, he was deeply aware of the current problems of the rabbit and solved the problems from a practical perspective.
Very good.
The rabbit imitated the SKS of the Russian bear to create the Type 56 and a half. Only with the Type 56 and a half can it develop its own Type 63 automatic rifle, Type 81 automatic rifle, Type 87 automatic rifle, Type 95 automatic rifle, etc.
Of course, this requires a long process, and the rabbit only has one year.
Jiang Chen can’t wait!
Millions of volunteers can’t wait even more.
Jiang Chen took out the drawings of the M16 automatic rifle and handed them to Zhou Hua:”We have something better, why should we imitate it?”
After seeing the drawings, Zhou Hua showed a stunned expression:”This… this……”
Shocked and speechless, he could not wait to study the M16 rifle blueprints
“You are lucky, because you participated in the production of the first standard rifle of Rabbit… In the future, our soldiers will remember your names!”
“From now on, your task is to make the things on the blueprint!”
“Let those Russian bears who look down on us see… rabbits are no worse than them!”
“Do you have confidence?”
“Yes, yes, yes……”Everyone shouted.
The unwillingness to give up and the unique backbone of the Chinese nation all burst out at this moment.
Next, the comrades in the firearms department began to make the M16 automatic rifle.
The M16’s receiver is made of aluminum alloy, the barrel, bolt and frame are made of steel, and the handguard, grip and butt are made of plastic.
This is a test of smelting technology.
Fortunately, under Jiang Chen’s guidance, the smelter can provide the required steel.
As for precision parts, there is no problem with the CNC workshop.
In order to deal with the damage of the gun caused by improper operation, Jiang Chen deliberately used a thick barrel.
In this way, it is more durable, and it also slows down the overheating during continuous shooting, which is suitable for continuous shooting.
At the same time, in order to reduce the shooting buffer, Jiang Chen made a design with obvious ergonomic features.
It is a plastic buttstock containing a metal recoil spring directly behind the bolt.
This also serves to accommodate the recoil spring and the recoil buffer.
The buttstock and the barrel are in a line to reduce the muzzle jump, especially in the full-automatic shooting mode.
Since the recoil will not cause the front sight to shift significantly, the user’s fatigue will be reduced.
Another ergonomic feature is the main sight above the muzzle brake and above the carrying handle.
The user can install a traditional carrying handle, aiming system, or various optical devices, such as night vision goggles, on the rail.
That’s why it is called”Lego for men.”
Finally, in order to improve some of the defects of the M16 rifle, Jiang Chen adopted a machine pressurization and recoil short barrel operation mechanism.
The bullet is pushed from the magazine into the barrel through gas pressure, the shell and the bullet are separated, and then the bullet flies out of the barrel.
This method can make the rifle unaffected by any environment.
A week later.
Under the leadership of Jiang Chen, the firearms department.
The first M16 automatic rifle was finally manufactured.
“Yay yay…we did it……”Zhou Hua and others shouted excitedly.
Jiang Chen looked at the brand new M16 rifle with his eyes full of anticipation.
“The rabbit finally has his own standard rifle!”
