Starting from the bright sword to engage in military industry

Chapter 368 Chapter 367, want to build a few submachine guns (old readers omitted)

As the saying goes, when the abbot smiles, life and death are unpredictable.To achieve this effect, a submachine gun is essential.

The Eighth Route Army really has submachine guns, and Yan Laoxi gave Jin-made Thomson.But there are guns but no bullets, what can I do?You can't buy some large-caliber bullets just for these broken guns, right?There is no need for that.

Hu Changyi didn't know whether the plot in the TV series could be realized in reality, but he knew that the submachine gun had an unparalleled advantage in close combat, especially when facing the devil's three-eighth cover.

There are many melee weapon products that can be chosen these days, including pistols, submachine guns, and shotguns.And these three guns have always been active in the modern army.

If possible, Hu Changyi would like to manufacture pistols, submachine guns and shotguns, but the conditions do not allow.And there is a trade-off here.

First of all, pistols are excluded, because there are a large number of box guns in the Eighth Route Army, and more will be captured in the future, so there is no rush.

The second is the shotgun, which will be used sooner or later. The shells of the shotgun can be made of paper, and some old Hanyang-made rifles have also been transformed into shotguns. This is available.

But, don't worry, because we have shotguns and elm cannons as weapons.

So, after sending away the weapons to Mount Wutai, Hu Changyi returned to the office, opened the dusty storage space in the drawing room, found a blueprint of the Popos submachine gun and took it out.

Well, the poor protagonist, who is equipped with a third-level body armor and plugboard, a bulletproof helmet and glasses, and even a virtual space similar to a storage ring, is not very useful.

The Bobos submachine gun was designed and manufactured by Maoxiong's family when Ninglengrad was besieged. In a broad sense, it is the same system as the Bobosa submachine gun, but it is different from the Bobosa submachine gun in terms of designers and specific structures.Of course, the bullets used are Maoxiong's 7.62×25 Tokarev pistol bullets.

Note that this Tokarev pistol bullet is actually a Soviet-made version of the 7.63mm Mauser pistol bullet, but it is slightly longer and has more propellant than the 7.63 Mauser bullet.

However, the PPS submachine gun can use Mauser bullets.This is also one of the reasons why Hu Changyi chose to build this gun.

As for why not make PPSH-41?Because BBS performance is better.In addition, the PPS is an all-steel structure without a heavy wooden butt, which is lighter and easier to produce.Because it itself is a product of extreme scarcity of materials, it is more suitable for the eight-way arsenal.

Some people may wonder, why is it more suitable for eight-way guns without a wooden butt?So let's talk about the wooden butt.

The wood of the gun stock is not just random wood!This requires high temperature resistance, deformation resistance, impact resistance, sufficient hardness and toughness...

Therefore, the Mauser rifle is made of European walnut wood, and the Yingjiang family uses black walnut wood extravagantly. Mao Xiong smiled and cut yellow birch wood from the old forests in Siberia and the outer Xing'an Mountains. The little devil also excitedly Proper wood was obtained from the old woods in the Northeast.

Note that the origin of these woods is basically in the alpine region, but China does not have such a local territory at present.There used to be, but it was ceded by Mi Qing, and Xiao Liuzi gave it away...

Therefore, just a butt can restrict China's firearms production.The suitable wood that can be found in China, that is, catalpa, can basically meet the requirements.As far as the areas controlled by the Eighth Route Army are concerned, there are still a lot of catalpas, which can meet the rifle production of the arsenal.

To make a digression, the rifle with the best comprehensive accuracy during World War II was actually the Mosin Nagant rifle of Maoxiong's family, and it was also the rifle used by the top ten snipers the most.Including sniper Zhang Taofang, who also used Mosin Nagant.

Moreover, Mao Xiong is simply blessed with the resources to make guns!People have rich reserves of metal chromium and metal nickel, so they can be wasted at will.Don't tell me you don't know that chromium nickel is the best alloying element for gun barrel steel.

Why is the AK47 so durable?The barrel and chamber are chrome-plated, how extravagant is this?
Oh, by the way, there is also the Ma Sihuan rifle made in the Czech Republic. This gun is also good and suitable for remaking a sniper rifle.It's just that the quantity is too small.

Therefore, a submachine gun with all steel structures is suitable for the Eighth Route Army.As for the problem that the steel structure will freeze hands in winter, a layer of leather will solve it.If not, just add a layer of cotton.

In the drawing room of Hujia Village in Jiuzhai, Hu Changyi looked at the PPS drawings and began to consider the pros and cons.

It must be created, but is it appropriate to appear now?

"The second bullet production line has been put into production stably. It can guarantee the production capacity of 1 to [-] rounds of pistol ammunition a day. Therefore, it can be manufactured. Because the Mauser pistols in the team consume unclean production capacity. It won't take long before the pistol bullets will backlog, which is not acceptable!"

"Why does Mao Xiong's family let recruits with no combat experience use PPSH41? It's because they have a large backlog of pistols in stock, and it's better to let the recruits shoot out!"

"And we made it, but we dare not use it for recruits! Once the trigger is pulled, a magazine will be out of bullets. Minister Zhang must be crazy! So it can only be used by veterans of the assault team to cooperate with semi-automatic rifles for assault Fight!"

"Moreover, we need to modify the original drawing design, reduce the theoretical rate of fire, add a semi-automatic single-shot function, and the appearance of the gun should also be changed... Add a piece of handguard to the front heat pipe to make it easier to hold. The width of the small grip is reduced..."

Relying on his gun design master ability, Hu Changyi quickly optimized a submachine gun that not only fits the Chinese hand shape, but also conforms to the Chinese aesthetics.Of course, the design basis is still PPS.

After the design is completed, it is necessary to arrange production.But now the arsenal is running continuously, the equipment is at full capacity, and the workers are not enough.And this month, we have to ensure the production of Bayi-type horse rifles and heavy machine guns. We also need to find time to go to the repair shop to help repair broken guns, and go to the shell workshop to help design equipment...

"So, I need more equipment, more workers, and more material guarantees! Also, will Minister Zhang go crazy when this submachine gun is manufactured? It's also a question!"

"But no matter what, it still needs to be made! Even if it is only equipped for the guerrillas, two for each squad, at least a hundred of them must be made."

"So..." Hu Changyi began to draw the processing drawings of individual parts.If it can be processed on existing equipment, it should be processed on existing equipment.If stamping is required, let Fu Yunpeng and the others design the hydraulic stamping equipment and molds.Anyway, the submachine gun is also a forerunner for the future MG series.

That's right, Hu Changyi has never forgotten the MG of the speed brake, which is suitable for the Eighth Route Army to fight.
