Instructor No. 5 actually understood why Li Zheng wanted the old-fashioned 85 sniper instead of the new high-precision sniper in his hand.
The reason is very simple. This subject shoots sniper rapid fire content, and bolt-action high-precision snipers need to be loaded manually, one shot at a time. This loading action takes time and will affect the aiming point.
The 85 Sniper is a semi-automatic sniper rifle. It fires one shot at a time, but it automatically loads until the magazine is empty.
Therefore, despite the fact that the 85 sniper is an old gun, it actually has a natural advantage in shooting speed.
There was an 85 sniper hanging on the wall of Lao Sun's place. Li Zheng could tell at a glance whether it had been modified or heavily modified.
Li Zheng had doubts about Lao Sun's craftsmanship before, but after modifying his gun just now, he understood that as long as it was a gun modified by Lao Sun, it would definitely be good.
"You're a thief, I didn't realize it before."
Instructor No. 5 evaluated Li Zheng.
"Then go and ask him to borrow it and try it out. I'll let you use the 85 sniper. If you can hit 3, you're a master."
After speaking, he looked at his watch.
"It's almost breakfast time now. Let's go back to have breakfast. After eating, you go to Lao Sun's to borrow a gun, and then come here to find us. We'll practice shooting here this morning."
After the team was closed and everyone gathered to have breakfast, Li Zheng's mind had already been on the shooting range.
The 85 sniper modified by Lao Sun that he saw in the gun magazine kept flashing in his mind, and his mind was no longer on food.
What's more, this poker subject was his first time, and young people are always extremely enthusiastic about new things.
After hastily stuffing three meat buns and drinking two glasses of milk, Li Zheng went to report to instructor No. 5 and asked for leave to go to the armory first.
Instructor No. 5 looked at Li Zheng with a half-smile, and nodded repeatedly without any embarrassment: "Go ahead, go ahead, go back early, and go straight to the shooting range after you get it."
After Li Zheng left, Instructor No. 3 next to him glanced at Li Zheng's back as he disappeared through the door. He turned back to Instructor No. 5 and said, "Why don't you borrow it yourself and let a new recruit get into trouble?"
Instructor No. 5 said: "Let him try it. It's hard to borrow Lao Sun's gun. Maybe this recruit egg can do it."
Instructor No. 3 smiled and said: "Even our captain can't borrow a gun, why should he be a new recruit?"
Of course Li Zheng didn't know what the instructors were talking about privately. In his opinion, it was just a gun!
What's more, it's an old-fashioned sniper rifle. It's probably just Lao Sun's personal hobby to modify it.
It shouldn't be difficult to borrow it and use it.
Arriving at the armory, Lao Sun used a laser to measure the accuracy of a gun barrel in front of the workbench. There was a lunch box in front of him, which contained hot porridge and steamed buns, and a large bowl of soy milk next to it.
But his mind was not on breakfast now, but on the weighted gun barrel in front of him.
It was custom-made by him and just arrived today.
It was the parameters he gave that required the company to make a competition-grade weighted barrel.
The barrel is very important for a sniper rifle.
Thicker and heavier barrels with advanced craftsmanship are of great benefit to the accuracy of the projectile after it is fired.
Seeing Li Zheng coming in, Lao Sun frowned.
"What are you doing here?"
Li Zheng said: "I'll get the gun."
"Get a gun?" Lao Sun said: "Don't you have the gun with you? Do you still want to get a gun? Which model should you get?"
He thought that instructor No. 5 asked Li Zheng to come over to pick up other types of guns, and he probably just wanted to conduct training on other types of guns temporarily.
Li Zheng raised his head and his eyes fell on the 85 sniper on the weapons wall.
The guns in the gun warehouse at the base have all been heavily modified by Lao Sun. They are basically the same as the modified 79 micro-flush in the hands of many special police officers today. They have been modified to the point where even my mother does not recognize them.
85 is a domestic classic sniper rifle.
At first, they were inspired by the Soviet-made SVD sniper rifles captured from the Vietnamese army during the Battle of Southern Xinjiang and imitated them, just to solve the problem of whether there were sniper rifles in the army.
The initial model was called the Type 79 sniper rifle, which was distributed to soldiers on the battlefield in southern Xinjiang for actual combat. Afterwards, the experience and opinions of various frontline soldiers were collected and improved, and it became the famous 85 sniper rifle.
Strictly speaking, the 85 sniper rifle is not a professional sniper rifle. Its range is only 1,200 meters. The effective range on paper is 1,000 meters, but in fact the best effective range is only 600 meters.
In fact, even at a distance of only 600 meters, it can only be regarded as usable. According to the standards of world-class sniper rifles, it is really not even close. In actual use, this gun can generally achieve relatively accurate results at a distance of 400 meters. Effect.
Later, during military exchanges with the Russian military, a shooting instructor from a military academy in the west discovered that the imitation of the 85 sniper rifle cannot be said to have failed. The biggest problem with its poor accuracy lies in the ammunition.
At that time, the 85 sniper ammunition used by Pla was a general-purpose ammunition for heavy machine guns. There was no special sniper ammunition. Moreover, the sniper concept in the military was relatively backward at that time. It was believed that as long as the gun has sufficient endurance range, it can overwhelm the opponent with superior firepower. , and no one values accuracy too much.
The reason why the svd sniper rifles of the former Soviet Union and the Russian army are more accurate than the 85 is because they use special bullets of model 7n1.
Special sniper bullet shells are all made of copper, which can achieve better gunpowder sealing and stability in the gun chamber when shooting, while heavy machine gun general bullet shells are only copper-coated, and the steel material has high hardness and is fired in the gun chamber. The tightness of gunpowder is not as good as that of pure copper.
Not only that, the special sniper bullet charge is not the charge in general-purpose bullets. The bullet charge of the sniper rifle burns faster, has better thermal effect, and generates higher kinetic energy. These are all important factors that affect the accuracy of the sniper rifle. .
There is also the warhead design. Don't underestimate the design of a small warhead, there is a lot of knowledge here. For example, the ship-shaped warhead of the Eagle Sauce family is very good in terms of air resistance, and the ballistic trajectory is very stable, so the spread of the impact point is extremely small.
Before there were no sniper-specific bullets in Pla, the performance of snipers in the military had always been hindered. It was difficult for 85 snipers using ordinary ammunition to meet the minimum 1moa dispersion requirements of professional sniper rifles.
However, this 85 sniper modified by Lao Sun is different.
He even re-customized the barrel, and changed the dovetail groove on the original scope holder that was scolded by military snipers into a Picatinny rail-type holder, because the special operations unit he was in had great authority. A batch of special all-copper sniper bullets with a caliber of 7.62mm were separately customized from the factory.
In addition, Lao Sun also modified the 85 sniper with a more comfortable cheek plate, installed a suspension bracket on the barrel, installed a support rod behind the butt, and customized a high-precision 8-24x scope for it...
When Li Zheng saw Lao Sun's modified 85 sniper for the first time in the gun warehouse, he thought he saw some new gun. He looked left and right and saw something familiar.
Finally, after taking a closer look, I discovered that this is just an 85mm sniper...
The best effective range of the 85 sniper modified by Lao Sun has reached the paper data of the original design - 1000 meters, and the shooting accuracy has been controlled within 0.5moa, which is not comparable to the original 85 sniper.
"Veteran, I want to take that 85 sniper to the shooting range." Li Zheng pointed to the old Sun's beloved weapon on the wall.
Old Sun was stunned for a moment, looked back at the gun, and his expression suddenly became complicated.
"No, not this gun! You can take any other gun you want after signing with me, but you can't borrow this gun!"
"Why?" Li Zheng was very puzzled.
Isn't it just a gun?
Now that it has been modified and is hanging here, why can't it be borrowed?
"There's no reason, I just won't lend it." Old Sun became impatient: "Where's all the nonsense? Do you want to get a gun? If you don't get a gun, leave. Don't delay my work here!"
