1510: C1510 The Caliber of the Rifle Bullets

C1510 The Caliber of the Rifle Bullets

And now that it had developed to this point, the steel bullet making technology in Han Country had also developed to a mature stage.

For example, the bullet shell was made of coating steel, and the material was made of cold steel. Although the elastic property was better, it was still not as good as copper, and the warhead was mainly made of steel. However, there was a layer of copper wire wrapping around the warhead, which was mainly because copper's extensibility was better than steel. It could better protect the rifleline inside the barrel.

Then, what if it went in the opposite direction?

Not to mention other things, as long as the copper layer outside the warhead is reduced, that's enough, this way, when the bullet comes out of the barrel, if the resistance is too great, the risk of the barrel being blown up will be greatly increased... Thinking about the White Elephant Country rifles, when they are used, they keep exploding. That scene would definitely make people burst into laughter.

"Right, let's do all of these together. We'll make all of these plans for them. Even if we don't make money, we still have to do it."

Refurbishing the guns in the inventory could save a portion of the cost. However, for the bullets, the improved bullets for White Elephant Country were not cost-effective. It was only because I was happy that I did it that I wanted to cheat you.

Everyone had a happy expression on their faces. Of course, there was no discussion about cheating the White Elephant People.

"Next, let's start building. We don't need all of these bullets. We need a portion of the standard bullets so that the other party won't notice." Qin Guan said.

Another advantage was that Han Country wasn't the only place where steel shells were used. The Bear Country also had steel shell bullets. After all, they were cheap. Therefore, even if the exit was given to the White Elephant Country, there would be a problem in the end. It could only make it difficult for Boris to defend himself. It had nothing to do with him.

This matter was settled just like that. Everyone was in high spirits. Inspector Gao continued to speak to Qin Guan, "President Qin, what do you think about our Type 81 Rifle?"

The 2296 factory was the number one light weapons factory in the country. This was also the reason why it could bear the heavy responsibility of producing the Type 81 Rifle.

Although it was only the factory design center and not the design unit of the Type 81 Rifle, in the experimental production process, they had already understood the overall structure of the Type 81 Rifle.

The reason why they studied the 81 Type Gun Clan was to use a squad of gunmen to replace the 56 Type semi-automatic rifles, 56 Type submachine guns, and 56 Type light machine guns that they were currently equipped with. After all, the Western World had already used assault rifles as the main force of the infantry class.

After all, there was not a single gunman, nor was there a system. It still used the 1956 Type 7.62 x 39 mm bullets.

From the outside, it was not much different from the AK47 series. Even outsiders could not tell. In fact, it already had some of its own characteristics.

For example, the opening drum was a new invention. The multi-use of guns, the systematic collection of firearms, and the development of the universal use of ammunition greatly facilitated training, usage, and maintenance. Not only did it increase the combat strength of combat units, but it also provided conditions for the exchange of firearms and the enhancement of firepower.

In 1983, this type of weapon had just begun production, and it was still the latest model.

However, everyone also knew that it was only a transitional type of weapon. Now, the trend of development in the world had started to be small-caliber. In 1978, China had officially decided to use a 5.8mm small-caliber automatic rifle in the future.

Now, Qin Guan needed to give some suggestions about this rifle. Qin Guan could not bring it up because there were professionals in the field. Qin Guan used to be a military fan, and his favorite was aircraft, cannon, and tank. His research on light weapons was not very professional.

However, Qin Guan knew one thing. It was a small gap in the automatic rifles. It was definitely a trap.

"Our Type 81 rifle is a reasonable design. A rifle with moderate performance, except for its weight being a little heavy, I think it's not bad " Qin Guan said, "In the future, we will use new materials and technologies. We will lower its weight. This kind of rifle can even become our mainstream rifle for the next few decades. "

"Sorry, President Qin, you probably don't know. Our rifle is just a transitional model. Right now, our country is preparing to use 5.8 millimeters as the standard caliber for the next generation of rifles." Director Gao said to Qin Guan.

"I think this is not appropriate." Qin Guan said. He did not know much about other things, but Qin Guan had some knowledge about small-caliber rifles. If it was suitable, why was it that in the future, it was only 2020 years ago. Including Y Country, the choice of caliber for the next generation of rifles. From 6.5 millimeters to 6 millimeters. Between 8 millimeters?

Now, after hearing what Qin Guan said, everyone was curious. "President Qin, you are saying that it is not appropriate for us to choose 5.8 millimeters, so it should be the same caliber as the western one. Should we use 5.56 millimeters?"

Qin Guan continued to shake his head. "No matter if it is 5.8 millimeters. 5.56 or 5.45 millimeters are not suitable. Small caliber rifles are not suitable at all."

A small caliber was a pit, and a non-supporting rifle was another pit. Looking at Han Country, no matter how well the Type 95 rifle was blown, didn't the Type 03 rifle return to its normal structure?

After going around in a circle and finally coming back, the rifle was still alright. At most, it would be scrapped and remade. What about the bullets? Once he changed the caliber of the gun and produced so many bullets, in the end, he found that the choice of caliber was not suitable. That would be a huge waste.

Now, the trend in the country was to use small-caliber rifles and bullets. Qin Guan decided to interfere. He did not want to take the wrong path and directly set the caliber at 6. 5 to 6. Between 8 was the way to go.

The development of the caliber of the rifle was related to a country. It was even a major matter for a military group. After the World War... Under the interference of Y Country, Western World chose the 7.62 x 51 mm rifle as the standard ammunition for NATO. It was called a full power gun ammunition.

Bear Country persisted on the path of the middle type of gun ammunition, which was 7.62 x 39 mm, and launched the classic AK47 rifle.

But very quickly, the Y Country once again guided the mainstream and launched the M16. It was a 5.56 mm rifle, and it fully demonstrated the advantage of a small caliber in the Monkey Country war. At the same time, Bear Country quietly launched the 5.45mm AK74 rifle.1

Just like that, the two camps began to change their equipment. The west unified 5.56mm, while the Bear Country unified 5.45mm.

What about Han Country? The Han Country had yet to catch up.

There was no need to rush. Thinking about how helpless the M16 of the Y Country was in the Mountain Country, he knew that the most important thing was its power.

YCountry used one hand to lead the small caliber light weapons, but later on, they used the other hand to overpower the small caliber and started to get 6.5mm rifles.

Now, since they had come here, they might as well take one step at a time. Qin Guan looked at everyone and said, "I think our rifles need to be made into six. 5 mm to 6. Between 8 millimeters, choose a suitable caliber, a small caliber rifle. There is no future. "

The caliber Qin Guan mentioned was definitely not a small caliber. Generally speaking, those under 6 mm were considered small caliber.
