Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Chapter 14 Boot Camp and Procurement
Cheng Wei has been here for two weeks since he arrived at the shooting training camp.

He has never been exposed to guns in China. The most pitiful thing is that this kid has never been to college, so he has not caught up with the only chance to shoot a gun during his freshman military training.

Since he arrived at the training camp and started classes, he has to learn from the beginning like an idiot, from the general firearms knowledge, to the correct shooting posture, firearm maintenance, bullet selection and so on.

In each pre-use firearm inspection, you need to complete the four-step procedure of ejecting the magazine, pulling the bolt, checking the chamber, and pulling the trigger at the worthless target.

In the first week, Cheng Wei would forget one step every time, and finally the Chinese surnamed Bao was so angry that he kicked directly.Said Cheng Wen, if you don't get rid of this problem, if you don't use the gun in the future, you will have a big problem.

The middle-aged Chinese man who lived overseas for many years, surnamed Bao, joined the Rangers and went to Iraq.After retiring, he opened a gun shop with his wife. Over the years, he is very proficient in all kinds of firearms.Cheng Wen called him Brother Bao.

In the past two years, Chinese people who have traveled abroad want to play with firearms that are hard to touch in China. Brother Bao saw that there was business to do here, so he opened a shooting training camp for domestic tourists to play with guns and targets. The domestic tourists provide professional services.

Seeing that Cheng Wei had no foundation at all, Brother Bao persuaded him to start from the primary and add the intermediate class, so that he could have a better learning result.

The first lesson Brother Bao gave to Cheng Wei was, not what gun you want to choose, but what kind of bullet you want to choose.What can kill the target is the bullet, the gun is just the carrier of the bullet, it is a tool.

Cheng Wei was stunned when he heard it, and said to himself, "Fuck, I've seen many types of guns in movies and TV shows. How can he understand bullets?"

So I looked at the row of bullets on the table, the big ones were machine gun bullets, the small ones were air gun bullets, so I pointed to the one in the middle, that's all.

Brother Bao saw that it was a 5.56mm NATO shell.

Well, the bullets are chosen, so what about the gun.Brother Bao pointed to more than a dozen different styles of semi-automatic rifles placed behind him for Cheng Wen to choose.

This kid took a fancy to the hottest HK416 in the "chicken eating game" at a glance. "I choose this." The gun Cheng Wei chose was actually the HK416 civilian version MR556A1, the difference was that it could only be fired semi-automatically.

"Are you sure you choose this gun? Often play 'eat chicken'?" Brother Bao smiled wickedly, making Cheng Wen wonder what was going on.

"Don't look at how cool you are in the game, in fact, this gun is heavier than ordinary guns." Brother Bao explained, yes, so Brother Bao himself usually uses the lighter AR15.

"The guns used in the U.S. military are of the livestock grade. But I see you..." Brother Bao looked at the young man in front of him who was 1.8 meters tall and weighed more than 200 catties.

"Okay, if you keep exercising and keep up with nutrition, it's not a big problem."

After three weeks of study, Cheng Wei has initially mastered the basic shooting methods and firearm maintenance knowledge.Since Brother Bao let Cheng Wen live in the guest room of his house, Cheng Wei went to Brother Bao's gun room to listen to him explain the knowledge of various firearms and bullets, and ate a lot of small stoves.Brother Bao is very easy-going and likes Cheng Wei.So mastering the knowledge, coupled with the shooting training every three to five, made Cheng Wei's shooting level improve very quickly.

When Cheng Wei stayed until the fourth week, he had just returned from training at the shooting range that day when he received a call from his cousin.

Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng have arrived.

Zhao Xin didn't ask his cousin to pick him up. He and Liu Sheng found a nearby hotel.

Brother Bao saw that the two men were both over 1.8 meters tall, and one of them was even more black and strong. Then he turned his head and glanced at Cheng Wei, who was 1.8 meters behind him.

Depend on!I'm the shortest, 1.7 meters five is disabled beside these three...

During the chat, Zhao Xin thanked Brother Bao for taking care of his cousin very much, and proposed to invite Brother Bao and his wife to go out to dinner to express his gratitude.Brother Bao quickly declined, saying that you have come to my house, how can I ask you to invite me.So I asked my wife to go to the supermarket to buy, and we all had hot pot together.

While the four of them sat chatting, Brother Bao learned that Liu Sheng was also a soldier and a scout of the Marine Corps. He felt that he had met a confidant, so he asked everyone to go to his gun room to see the guns.

As soon as Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng entered the room, they took a deep breath.

good guy!There are various types of firearms on the shelves, on the table, and on the ground.Pistols range from PPK to Smith M500 revolvers, semi-automatic rifles, submachine guns, Browning shotguns, and a Barrett M82A1 sniper.

On the table in the corner of the room, there is also a bullet refiller, with boxes of bullets and shells stacked next to it.

After all, he was a former soldier. Liu Sheng's eyes were very poisonous, and he saw an "August [-]" rifle on a shelf at a glance.

"Great, you also have a collection of this gun. I heard that this gun is very expensive in the market."

"Isn't it?" Brother Bao reached out to take the Bayi, and continued: "I bought it for 5000 yuan, but now it costs at least 1 yuan to buy it in the market. This gun is very rare here."

Then he removed the magazine, pulled the bolt to check the chamber, and pulled the trigger on the side where no one was standing on the ground.After finishing all this, he handed the gun to Liu Sheng.

Liu Sheng couldn't put it down with the Bayi rifle, and it took a long time before he handed it to Zhao Xin who was waiting.

Zhao Xin is also very familiar with the Bayi Bar. He shot this gun when he was in high school military training.I also went to the army shooting range with my classmate whose father is the leader of the army, and shot hundreds of bullets.

"Can I use this gun to shoot a few shots at the shooting range tomorrow?" Zhao Xin asked Brother Bao.

"No problem. I still have a lot of bullets here."

Both Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng felt that Brother Bao was quite bold. Although he lived on the other side of the ocean for many years, he still did not change the enthusiasm of the Chinese people.This is good, everyone is happy to get along with each other.

In the following week, Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng had enough gun addiction and tried all kinds of firearms.

Liu Sheng's favorite is the Blazer Tactical Type 2. He has used this gun in the army, and it is very easy to fight.

And Zhao Xin thinks that the Barrett MRAD sniper rifle is very useful.

The two of them also paid to participate in Brother Bao's shooting training class for a few days, and then participated in the junior shooter assessment with everyone.

Both are doing very well.

刘胜在连续9发3组控制100码的距离上打出了相当高的水准；在100码10发连续射击0.25MOA目标，命中率达到100%。在200码5发连续射击上，击中全部硬币，而且都是正中硬币中心。让参加训练营的众人惊叹不已。

赵新在上述考核标准中，第一项9发3组控制100码的距离上达到了0.5的MOA；第二项的命中率达到80%；第三项则打中了4枚硬币，其中只有一枚是正中硬币中心。

The two became the stars of the training camp in one fell swoop.

From Brother Bao's point of view, Liu Sheng has been a scout for seven years, and his level is indeed very high, but he was a former professional and trained every day; but what is this kid Zhao Xin?According to him, he played the Bayi bar with hundreds of rounds in high school, and only ten rounds, fifty or six-and-a-half rounds during military training in college.

Facing Brother Bao's question, Zhao Xinxin said that local Hao does not need evaluation.

After a week, Zhao Xin got along very well with one of Brother Bao's apprentices, and got the news he wanted from him.

The young man who claimed to be Brother Bao's apprentice, Li Wei, came from Jiaodong.

Li Wei immigrated to the other side of the ocean with his parents since he was a child, and has lived here for more than ten years.Although he is a middle school and even a university here, he can speak Mandarin very fluently, and he is also very fluent in Jiaodong dialect.

Li Wei likes the exciting experience of shooting sports very much. He has studied with Brother Bao for several years. He even used the vacation time to work and help in Brother Bao's gun shop.

Li Wei told Zhao Xin that in January every year, the biggest gun show will be held in the casino.There are many guns traded on the black market, all sourced from guns at gun shows.Specifically, how to spread out, that is, cats have cat ways, and mice have rat ways.

Once Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng asked Li Wei to have dinner together. During the banquet, Li Wei drank a little too much, revealing that one of his college buddies was doing gun business in the online black market.

So Zhao Xin asked Li Wei if he could introduce his friend to get to know him and buy a few sticks.Li Wei instinctively wanted to refuse, but could not resist the temptation of Zhao Xin's generous commission, and finally nodded in agreement.

In the past two years, the economic development on the other side of the ocean has not been good, and many people have joined the ranks of the unemployed.Li Wei himself originally opened a small company engaged in the wholesale business of small commodities. Affected by the economic environment, he could hardly hold it anymore; and the commission figures proposed by Zhao Xin made his eyes shine, even if the business was closed, with This commission can also live a good life.

Two days later, Li Wei called Zhao Xin and said that he had made an appointment and asked Zhao Xin to determine the time.As for the location, because it's just to meet and talk first, just choose a hotel.

After thinking about it, Zhao Xin said to Li Wei that at ten o'clock the day after tomorrow, you will bring someone to my hotel, and we will talk in the guest room.

The next morning, Zhao Xin and Liu Sheng went to the city and found a store specializing in outdoor products.

Liu Sheng carefully selected for a long time and chose a Leatherneck-Gearr-Patrol straight knife.This knife is made of German steel 4116 stainless steel. The surface of the knife is coated with a black matt protective film, which looks murderous.There are knife grids and guards on the front and back of the handle, and the handle is deeply textured.The end of the handle is also stainless steel.

In the process of chatting with the shop owner, Zhao Xin learned that this knife was actually made in Wanwan.Moreover, the boss reminded Zhao Xin that the steel used by Liu Shengxuan did not add carbon element, so even if the corrosion resistance is very good, the blade needs to be polished regularly to keep the knife sharp.

Just in case, Zhao Xin asked Liu Sheng to choose another one.The shop owner recommended KA-BAR-Becker-22-Gear-Patrol, which is the Kaba fighting knife.This knife is shorter than the previous one, and the teardrop-shaped blade is also very short.Liu Sheng picked it up and threw it a few times in his hand, feeling it was okay.

As for Zhao Xin himself, he actually liked a retro-style Buck knife at a glance.The handle of yellow sandalwood and the brass guards on the front and back of the handle make it look like a handicraft.Zhao Xin felt that it would be good to put this knife on a desk for viewing in the future.

The two finished shopping and went out of the outdoor equipment store. Zhao Xin saw that there was a Hertz car rental company diagonally across the street. He thought that it would be inconvenient to call a taxi every day to go to Brother Bao, so he decided to rent a car first. a few days.

Zhao Xin successfully rented a Nissan pickup after submitting his passport, VISA card, domestic driver's license and an IDP.

One day later, at 05:30 in the morning, Zhao Xin couldn't fall asleep.After all, this was his first time, and he was really nervous.The scenes of gangsters eating gangsters or ATF fishing in the movies I watched kept coming to my mind.

He was a little regretful at this moment, and felt that it was a little rash to chat with Li Wei.After thinking over and over again, Zhao Xin got up, washed and dressed, went downstairs, went to the smoking room in the hotel, smoked one by one, and was struggling.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Liu Sheng woke up and knocked on the door next door to find that Zhao Xin was not there. He thought he was going downstairs for breakfast, so he went to the restaurant to find him.As a result, I didn't see Zhao Xin when I got to the restaurant, so I called and Zhao Xin said that I would be there soon.

After a while, Zhao Xin sat opposite Liu Sheng with a tangled face, and asked the waiter for a cup of coffee.

"What's wrong?" Liu Sheng asked casually.

"Do you think we're a little too hasty?" Zhao Xin hesitated and asked.

Liu Sheng didn't speak, he glanced at the other party, lowered his head to finish the bread in his hand, and took a sip of coffee, then said, "Actually, I'm also a little worried. But then again, this step has to go no matter what. "

Zhao Xin said helplessly: "Yeah. I woke up early in the morning and was thinking about this. I'm a little worried." Besides. But you have to be prepared, if the other party has a ghost, it will point at you."

Liu Sheng nodded indifferently.

At nine o'clock, Zhao Xin gave Liu Sheng the room card and asked him to go to his room to prepare.He found a spot in the corner of the hotel lobby by himself, and pretended to be on the phone with his mobile phone, and people who came in through the hotel door couldn't see it.

Li Wei came at 09:30.He walked into the hotel lobby with a young white man. The two looked around for a while, and then sat down calmly.

Zhao Xin pretended to be listening to the phone and looked at Li Wei and the two casually.

Li Wei and the other party were sitting there chatting about something, but the white young man looked around while talking.

"It doesn't seem to be at ease." Zhao Xin muttered in his heart.

After more than 20 minutes like this, the young Caucasian man seemed relieved, so he said something to Li Wei, and the two got up immediately and got on the elevator.Zhao Xin didn't move, he continued to pretend to answer the phone in the corner, and talked for a while.

After 5 minutes, Zhao Xin saw that no one got on the elevator, but several people got out of the elevator.Only then did he put away the phone, and went to the smoking room from the emergency passage, took a few puffs of cigarettes in it before coming out, and then returned to his guest room.
