Chapter 145: Changing Magazines with One Hand

"I lost. There is no comparison. It is indeed 100 rings. My 100 rings cannot be compared with this one. Comrade Wang Luo not only has a fast shooting speed, but also has almost no dispersion range. Look at this target hole. The gradual expansion is the best proof. The reporter really made a mistake."

"Is this okay?"

"This is simply not normal. Shooting at the same bullet hole from 400 meters away, and still hitting it accurately. Alas, I lost again."

Everyone started sighing again at this time. They had competed in three events and lost cleanly every time. How could they accept this? The leader was looking for someone to ruin the party. It was all because they were too proud.

"Haha, I told you, Wang Luo is usually very good with guns, I didn't expect him to be even better now."

Li Da burst into laughter.

"Are you still competing? Comrade Sun."

"No need to compete anymore. I can never reach your level. When I was a child, my grandfather told me that if a person can achieve a feeling of being one with the gun, he can hit whatever he points at regardless of speed or accuracy. I have always been looking for this feeling, but I have never encountered it. Among the seniors, I think Senior Zou has reached this level. Now I have met you, Comrade Wang Luo. If possible, I would like to ask you, can you teach me this move?"

Sun Jun sincerely asked Wang Luo for advice.

"I would like to teach you, but I really can't. You can see that I'm very strong, so I can hardly feel the recoil of the gun. And my eyesight is very good. When you need a telescope to see something, I can see it with my naked eyes. You see there is a difference. If you don't believe me, come over with a 56 and I'll shoot you. You'll know it at a glance."

We all know that the Type 56 submachine gun is a copy of the AK47. It is indeed a good gun, sturdy and durable. No matter it is placed in water or sand, you can take it out and continue to shoot, there is nothing wrong with it. But it has one drawback, the recoil is too large. So when using this gun, if you want to hit the target at a long distance, you usually use the point-fire method. This is even more so in China. One reason is to save ammunition, and the other is that our soldiers are weaker than Russian soldiers, so controlling the gun is a big problem.

He casually took the Type 56 submachine gun handed to him, checked it, loaded a few magazines and inserted them into the Type 56 carrying equipment, asked someone to set up the target, and Wang Luo began his performance.

Sometimes he lay down, sometimes he knelt, and sometimes he crawled forward, testing all the military skills he could use in front of everyone. He even showed everyone how to change a magazine with one hand. This move was both handsome and practical, and once it was used, it immediately aroused cheers from everyone.

We probably know about changing magazines with one hand from the movie "Wolf Warrior 2". That action, performed by Li Dakang, immediately amazed a large number of people. In fact, it was Li Dakang and his group of veterans who had come down from the battlefield who started to popularize it. Our army did not have this action before. It was invented by a soldier and then spread. It is a very practical tactical action. On the battlefield, changing magazines with one hand only takes 2-3 seconds, which is much faster than using the regular method.

Wang Luo had seen this TV series, so he asked his father, a veteran soldier, about it. Seeing that he was curious, his father took out his nephew's water gun and explained it to him in detail. So he knew the key points and demonstrated it here for the first time. Everyone knew at a glance how practical this move was on the battlefield, so they decided to let Wang Luo teach them.

Chu Ming and Li Da now can't understand their eldest nephew. When did you learn this? How did he become so strong? It seems that any military skill is so smooth in his hands, more experienced than a veteran. They all regret not insisting on discussing with Wang Zhonghua to let Wang Luo enter the military and police school. However, Wang Zhonghua did not agree. If his son was unwilling, he would not force him. He just let him do whatever he wants.

"Click."

After checking that there were no bullets in the chamber and removing the magazine, he ended the performance. Every bullet hit the target paper. His movements were smooth and without any delay.

"Haha, nephew, you have a long face, a long face, awesome."

The two of them came over and laughed, each patting my shoulder. They looked like they had eaten several pounds of bee poop.

"As you can see, my shoulder is basically motionless. The gun is OK, but the recoil is a bit strong and the jump is too strong. It is not easy for a thin person to press the gun. It should be modified. There is nothing to say about the carrying equipment. It is simple and practical."

Wang Luo didn't say anything else, he just talked about his understanding of the equipment.

Let's go back to 1956. At that time, our country's imitation of the AK-47 was finalized and named the Type 56 submachine gun. However, the M1955 ammunition bag that was introduced at the same time was only produced for a short time before it was discontinued. Later, based on the experience and needs of the troops and the positioning of the Type 56 submachine gun, the Type 56 magazine carrying bag was designed.

There is also a small episode here. Rumor has it that during World War II, chest-mounted magazine carrying devices were widely used in submachine guns of various countries. The Type 56 magazine carrying bag with a chest-mounted design was developed based on the positioning of the Type 56 "submachine gun".

In any case, the Type 56 magazine carrying bag looks quite simple on the outside, consisting of just a few pieces of canvas and a few buttons, but its chest-hanging design allows magazines, grenades, gun oil bottles and a series of large and small accessories to be concentrated on the chest.

This makes it relatively easy for soldiers to carry and perform tactical actions: at least the waist-mounted magazine bag will not shift or hurt the waist when rolling or crawling. Whether shooting in a prone, kneeling or standing position, the movement of drawing the magazine from the chest is smaller than that from the waist, and is more convenient than the latter.

The magazine bag placed on the chest allows soldiers to quickly adapt and use it. Next to the magazine bag is the accessory bag, which can be used to place the anti-1 type handleless grenade produced in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. In this way, magazines and grenades, which are the main equipment accessories and combat equipment used by soldiers, can be concentrated on the chest. When a soldier using an AK series rifle is equipped with a 56-type magazine carrying bag, handleless grenades, and magazines, he can adapt to most combat situations on the battlefield.

According to rumors, the development of the Type 56 magazine carrying bag is somewhat coincidental. But it is this coincidence that makes the Type 56 magazine carrying bag a combat equipment recognized by soldiers from a series of countries, big and small, including China, Russia, the United States, Pakistan, and Bangladesh. However, Wang Luo personally believes that this is not a coincidence, but a masterpiece of the ingenuity of the grassroots soldiers, the overall response of the troops, the experience of the designers, and in-depth grassroots research.

Why is Type 56 carrying gear widely adopted and referenced by various countries? What is so advanced about it? It is just made of a few pieces of canvas. Even in the 21st century, this thing is still widely adopted by many countries. Wang Luo personally thinks that it is all due to the support of its peers.

The reason why the Type 56 magazine carrying bag is said to rely on its peers is that the M1955 ammunition shoulder bag of the Soviets and the M1969 and M1956 equipment systems of the US Army all adopted a waist-hanging design. However, the M1955 and M1969 equipped by the Soviet Army were pure shoulder bags and backpacks, which were extremely easy to shift when performing tactical actions. The M1956 used by the US Army was more advanced, and the magazine bag could be freely fixed in place according to the shooter's habits. The belt itself was connected to the shoulder strap, which was relatively stable when performing tactical actions. However, the shooter's waist was not evenly stressed during the march, so it was naturally not comfortable.

After the outbreak of the US-China War, the Northern Army received great assistance. On the list of assistance, there was a Type 56 magazine carrying bag. Since then, the Type 56 magazine carrying bag has entered the sight of the US Army. At first, the US Army's report also believed that the Type 3 magazine carrying bag with three magazines on the chest had a certain bulletproof ability and could well protect the shooter's chest, so it was highly praised. Later, the US Army's "Navy SEALs" and others began to use the Type 56 magazine carrying bag on the battlefield. It can be seen that the US Army prefers the Type 56 magazine carrying bag.

Ordinary US troops have been using the 16-round magazines issued with the M-16 and M-1A20, and can only use the M1956 waist-mounted magazine pouch. However, the US troops at this time still adhered to the "tradition" of waist-mounted ammunition, and the LBE ammunition carrier issued in 1987 still carried ammunition pouches on the waist. It was not until the distribution of the new generation of LBV ammunition carriers that US soldiers officially bid farewell to various "Y belts" and officially obtained ammunition carriers that could draw magazines from the chest.

In contrast, the Soviet army, which had been baptized by the Graveyard War, seemed to be extremely "take-it-as-it-is". After the soldiers seized the Type 56 magazine carrying bags on the battlefield, they modified them for their own use and sent them back to China for imitation. It was a fact that the Soviet army's logistics were backward (in the Graveyard War, Soviet soldiers complained that the military boots were produced only in 1945). Although the magazine bags issued to soldiers could hold three AK magazines, the three steel magazines plus the bullets inside were heavy and large in size, which could not change the fact that the Soviet army's ammunition carrying equipment was backward.

The captured Type 56 magazine carrying bags of the Soviet army were generally kept. This was because Soviet soldiers had already started to equip themselves with 6B2 bulletproof vests, which only had a single bulletproof property and could only be used in conjunction with the M1969 ammunition shoulder bag. Obviously, such a design would only bring endless pain to the soldiers: no matter how compact the M1969 ammunition shoulder bag was adjusted, it still could not change the fact that the soldiers were subjected to uneven force. At this time, once the Soviet soldiers captured the Type 56 magazine carrying bags, they would quickly put them on: the lightweight Type 56 magazine carrying bags could well adapt to the 6B2 bulletproof vests!
无论是AKM的弹匣还是AK-74的弹匣都能轻松地装进56式弹匣携行袋里，这给苏军士兵留下了很好的印象。不过，苏军士兵除了3联装弹匣挎包以外还有一款5联装的弹药背包，战场上苏军士兵的弹药携行量通常达到6~8个弹匣，56式弹匣携行袋只能装3个弹匣显然是不够用的。

In order to change this situation, the Soviet army began to collectively modify the Type 56 magazine carrying bag: soak the canvas Type 56 magazine carrying bag in water for a day and a night and then dry it. The volume of the Type 56 magazine carrying bag can be doubled, and 6 magazines can be stuffed in! The Soviet R-56 carrying equipment designed based on the Type 22 magazine carrying bag basically adopted this design.

However, the Soviet army adopted a design that was more suitable for their own national conditions after the R-22 carrying device. Although the canvas body remained unchanged, the capacity of the magazine bag was generally increased, and the wooden buckle design of the original Type 56 magazine carrying bag was changed to Velcro. The KGB combat unit also used a modified version of the extended magazine cover in combat, which could more stably fix the magazine; in order to improve the comfort of the soldiers, shoulder straps were added to the canvas shoulder strips; usually, the Lifchik-1 and Lifchik-2 ammunition carrying devices in the hands of Soviet soldiers also added flare pockets, and the small bag near the magazine bag was changed from horizontal to vertical, closer to the shooter's chest.

Such carrying bags even had an impact from the 80s to the Chechen War. During the Chechen War, although the Russian army had already used camouflage uniforms in large quantities, sometimes due to insufficient production capacity, the matching camouflage tactical equipment was not issued in time; it may also be due to the equipment habits of the shooters, and a camouflage version of the chest-mounted equipment was derived at that time.

In summary, compared with the ammunition carrying equipment of other countries, my country's Type 56 magazine carrying bag can be regarded as the originator of tactical chest-mounted equipment to a certain extent, and it also pioneered the placement of rifle magazines on the chest. This is obviously of great significance, and it can be said that it has helped countries around the world get rid of the shackles of backward tactical carrying equipment such as "Y belt" and "H belt" that have been used since World War II.

"We admit that you are good with guns, but this gun is so good, the firepower is so strong. When we captured a Type 99 rifle, we were so happy that it was like Chinese New Year. Later, we changed to a PPSh, but it couldn't catch up with this. You still say it is not good even without this? Be careful or I will tell your dad, humph."

When the Type 56 was mentioned as not good, Li Da, who was in charge of logistics, became anxious. He could ignore other things with Wang Luo, but when it came to the fact that his own weapon was not good, it was like pinching his waist and he immediately became furious. It was true, after all, he had won the championship with just a single shot.

"It's no use telling my dad. The gun is a good gun, and the firepower is enough, but the recoil is really too strong. People in our country are generally thin and short. How can they compare with those tall and strong people in Europe and the United States? How many people in our family have the same physique? This gun is designed according to ergonomics and suits their body shape. It has good stability and reliability, low failure rate, and is sturdy and durable. For close-range attacks, its firepower is also strong, but the recoil is too large during continuous shooting, and the gun cannot be suppressed. When shooting continuously, the bullets have already flown away. In a life-and-death battle, isn't this just asking for trouble? If you don't believe me, ask the soldiers if they have this problem."

Wang Luo did not argue with Li Da, but patiently explained the advantages and disadvantages of the 56 submachine gun.
