Chapter 36 The God of the Gun
"Yes, this gun is our country's first-generation domestic sniper rifle, the Type 79 sniper rifle!" An Meng's eyes swept over the body of the sniper rifle in the booth, and his tone sounded a little sighing, "Brother
Do you know where this gun came from?"
"I know a little bit. I heard that it was copied from the SVD sniper rifle produced in the Soviet Union!"
"Well, in the late 1970s, we launched a self-defense counterattack against Vietnam. Before the war began, our troops were not equipped with sniper rifles. There were not even specialized snipers in the troops. At that time, Vietnam's
There are many snipers in the army, and the Vietnamese snipers are equipped with a large number of SVD sniper rifles provided by the Soviet Union. At that time, the Vietnamese army had just experienced a battle with the American army and had very rich combat experience. In the self-defense counterattack,
From the beginning, the snipers and sniper rifles in the Vietnamese army caused great casualties to our army and caused great psychological pressure to many soldiers who had just joined the army..."
"This is understandable. The killing and destructive power a sniper can cause on the battlefield is often unimaginable by ordinary people. Especially for many recruits who have just entered the battlefield, snipers are like a nightmare!"
"Indeed, in the face of Vietnamese snipers, we naturally have to think of ways to deal with them. On the battlefield, the only people who can fight against snipers are snipers. We have sharpshooters, but sharpshooters cannot fight with the Vietnamese without suitable weapons.
At that time, foreign countries were blocking us. Due to special historical reasons, we may not be able to buy weapons such as sniper rifles with money, so we must make our own sniper rifles.
The domestically produced Type 79 sniper rifle in this counter was produced based on the SVD sniper rifle seized from the army at that time. It was seized in 1979 and research on imitation began. It was officially equipped with the army in 1981, so it was named the Type 79 sniper rifle.
To be honest, compared with the SVD made in the Soviet Union, there is still a certain gap in performance between this Type 79 sniper rifle, which you must be able to understand!"
"It's normal if there is a gap. I've also heard that this is the case. There is a difference between copycat products and genuine products. The Soviet Union's military production level at that time was indeed much higher than ours!" Wang Wuyin nodded.
An Meng's tone was full of admiration, and he pointed to the old sniper rifle in the display cabinet, "You know, it is because of such a sniper rifle that its performance is not outstanding in all aspects. The person who used this rifle was a
Seniors in the army have created countless miracles on the battlefield. That senior used this rifle to kill more than 700 enemies in the battle of Lianglun Mountain, including more than 200 Vietnamese snipers.
Hands and sharpshooters, as well as hundreds of Vietnamese army officers, killed the Vietnamese army until they howled like ghosts. This Type 79 also set a sniper distance record of up to 1,600 meters. Because of the existence of that senior, the Vietnamese army finally even proposed a fight between the two sides.
The proposal stopped sniper warfare on the battlefield, so this sniper rifle became a meritorious rifle..."
Although a long time had passed since these things happened, Wang Wuyin was shocked when he heard them. He could imagine the scene at that time, "How come I have never heard of this kind of thing in the media?"
"Not everything on the battlefield will be reported to the media. Many of them are kept secret and will not be publicized. Moreover, after the war, our relationship with Vietnam became warmer, so the media will not talk about these deeds!"
"Is that senior still there now?"
"Of course I'm still there. That senior is a combat hero, and his title in the army is the Gunslinger. In fact, that senior has created more miracles than just that!"
"What other miracles did that senior create?"
"You can't imagine that any gun will come alive in the hands of that senior. It will be so powerful that it is unimaginable. Have you ever seen a domestic Type 56 used casually at a distance of two hundred meters?
, fire ten shots in a row, and then shoot ten bullets into the mouth of ten overturned wine bottles, and then out from the bottom of the bottle, that senior can do it!"
Wang Wuyin was dumbfounded, "Holy shit, this is so awesome, it's almost impossible for humans to do this!"
"Indeed, that senior's ability to use a gun is no longer a skill, but a miraculous skill. He truly achieves the state of man-gun integration, which is astonishing. If I hadn't seen the image left by that senior with my own eyes
Record, I don’t believe there are such people in this world!”
"Then why is this Type 79 sniper rifle placed here?"
"This is the gun that Director Xu came to. It is displayed here to remind everyone who comes here that a truly powerful sniper relies on himself, not weapons. Once he has learned his skills, no matter what kind of gun he is,
If you hold it in your hand, you can use the gun effectively. Each of us must learn to use people to control guns, rather than using guns to control people! Although I have not reached such a state yet, I still know a direction for my efforts.
!”
After listening to An Meng talk for a long time, Wang Wuyin couldn't help itching his hands and wanted to touch this "artifact", "Brother An, can you take out this gun and let me have a look?"
"This gun can no longer be used. The rifling inside is very worn!"
Wang Wuyuan smiled harmlessly, "It doesn't matter, I won't take it out to shoot, I just want to hold it in my hand and touch it to get some of that senior's immortality!"
This is not an excessive request. An Meng glanced at Wang Wuyin and said, "Then wait here for a moment!"
"Okay, thank you, Brother An!"
An Meng walked directly to a counter in the lobby, pointed to an elderly staff member behind the counter and said something.
Judging from An Meng's expression, he seemed to have great respect for the staff in the lobby.
The staff member looked at Wang Wuyin, then took the key from behind the counter, and then walked over with An Meng, opened the lock of the display cabinet, and then carefully took out the Type 79 sniper rifle.
"Boy, be careful, hold it firmly and don't drop it on the ground!" the staff member handed the gun over and said carefully.
"Hahaha, okay, okay, thank you, uncle. I'm so excited to be able to touch such a magical gun..." Wang Wuyin's excitement is not pretending, but real excitement. Such a gun is really exciting.
It can be regarded as a cultural relic.
The weapon Wang Wuyin used most on the battlefield was a sniper rifle. He was also half a sniper. He was envious of the abilities of the sniper masters. Seeing the weapons of the legendary masters right in front of him, Wang Wuyin naturally couldn't bear it.
I just want to admire the style of this magic gun.
The Type 79 was already old and the rifling was very badly worn. But whether it was a psychological effect or not, Wang Wuyin always felt that the gun had a special feeling in his hand.
