"Master Lu, let's go to the shooting range. I'll show you the semi-automatic rifle I developed myself."
After Liu Guoen said that, he handed Lu Xiaojia a rifle similar to the M1 Garand. He took a closer look to see if it was the famous Liu's semi-automatic rifle.
The picture shows Liu's semi-automatic rifle, using 7.92×57 Mauser rifle ammunition

Looking at the semi-automatic rifle in his hand, Lu Xiaojia was in a daze for a moment.
This is a semi-automatic rifle developed by China's talented people in 1916. How epoch-making significance this has for the Chinese!
However, because the overall military technology of China during this period was too backward, the steel and parts that were qualified for manufacturing this kind of gun could not be produced in-house.
Eventually, this semi-automatic rifle collapsed and disappeared in the long river of history.
But now that I am here, the semi-automatic rifle that belongs to the Chinese people will surely shine!
"Master Lu, what's wrong with you? This Liu-style semi-automatic rifle was made by me when I participated in the semi-automatic rifle design competition in the Sam Country in 1918. It was remodeled at their Springfield Arsenal using Pratt & Whitney equipment. The product has very good performance. Would you like to try it? I guarantee you will be satisfied.”
Liu Guoen and Xie Deqing saw him stunned for a long time, so they reminded him. Lu Xiaojia woke up from a dream and followed them to the shooting range.
There is an open space in the valley, with straw targets set up 50 to 400 meters away.
Liu Guoen pulled the bolt of the STG44 assault rifle, switched to single-shot mode, and poured ammunition at the straw target in the distance from a standing shooting posture.
"boom !"
"boom !"
Several gunshots echoed in the valley, and the 100- to 150-meter straw target was shot to pieces in an instant, with straw flying everywhere, causing Liu Guoen to cheer.
"Good! Good gun!"
"Huh? Grandma, this gun also has a telescope. Little bastard, please bring me the telescope and put it on!"
The STG44 assault rifle naturally has a magnification scope. Every STG44 produced by the system is equipped with a Sono ZF-4 quadruple scope.
This is also the reason why Lu Xiaojia directly equips assault rifles. With the help of optical sights, soldiers can shoot at long distances with much higher accuracy.
Liu Guoen took the Sono scope from the soldier's hand, quickly loaded it on the gun, and then started shooting at distant straw targets in a prone and kneeling position.
This time, all the straw targets 300 meters away were hit, but it didn't work at 350 meters. After more than a dozen bullets were fired, only two or three hit.
After Liu Guoen reloaded the magazine of the STG44 assault rifle, he switched the gun to burst mode and fired a burst of short bursts, long bursts, and sweeps at the target fifty meters away. After finishing the shooting, he couldn't help but sigh.
"Hey, this is indeed a good gun made by foreigners. It has strong firepower at close range, strong suppression power at mid-range, and the effective long-distance range is also longer than that made by Hanyang..."
"Hey, Master Lu, why don't you try my Liu-style semi-automatic rifle? I also brought a scope from Sam Country, which can shoot five to six hundred meters."
"Well, Uncle Liu, I'm going to try your semi-automatic rifle and see how it performs."
After that, Lu Xiaojia loaded 6 copper-yellow 7.92 Mauser bullets into the gun in his hand and briefly observed the structure of the rifle in his hand.
The automatic mode of this gun is unique and completely different from other gas-operated weapons.
Liu Guoen installed a muzzle on the muzzle of the gun. When ammunition is fired, the remaining gas pushes the muzzle gas collector forward, thereby driving a set of linkage mechanisms to complete the automatic loading action again.
To switch to single-shot shooting mode, just turn the gas cylinder upside down. If you want to switch to semi-automatic shooting mode, just turn the gas cylinder forward.
Then, Lu Xiaojia lay down directly on the ground, began to think about the rifle shooting knowledge she had learned on the Internet, and then started to follow it.
The butt of the gun is pressed tightly against the shoulder, the wooden gun handle is tightly held with the hand, and the three points and one line are aimed at the straw target 150 meters away. Take a deep breath, keep the body stable, and pull the trigger at the moment when the heart rate is the most stable.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
After a few gunshots, the results seemed to be good. All three shots hit the target. For Lu Xiaojia, who was using a rifle for the first time, this result was very good.
After attaching a 5x Winchester A5 scope to the gun, Lu Xiaojia shot at a farther straw target of 200 to 400 meters.
The results were very good. Even though Lu Xiaojia's marksmanship was not very good, he still hit the target 400 meters away. He also commented on the gun.
"Uncle Liu, the performance of your gun is very good, but it is loaded with too little ammunition. For a semi-automatic rifle, 6 rounds of bullets are really not enough. If this gun can be changed to a 10-8 round magazine and bridge clip The reloading will be better, and the firepower will be sustained much better.”
"Master Lu, don't worry. When I designed this Liu-style semi-automatic rifle, I designed it with two loading methods for later improvement. The other loading method is similar to the Lee-Enfield rifle and is installed under the gun. A box-type double-row magazine. It is equipped with magazines with ammunition capacities of 10, 15, and 20 rounds, so the firepower sustainability will be greatly improved."
"That's good. After the new arsenal in Jinhua City is built, Uncle Liu and Director Xie will slightly improve this gun, and then set up a production line to start producing this semi-automatic rifle."
Lu Xiaojia planned to select a few soldiers with excellent marksmanship in the army and issue them with semi-automatic rifles.
Train them into accurate marksmen with perfect shots and bear the backbone of firepower in long-distance operations.
He originally planned to purchase semi-automatic rifles such as M1 Garand, SVT-40, and GeW43 from the system and distribute them to precision shooters.
However, the performance of Liu's semi-automatic rifle just now made Lu Xiaojia change his mind temporarily. Perhaps the Hua people's own weapons are also a good choice.
