Lin Mo and Xu Zhiyu discussed the future personnel arrangements together and tried to ensure that more people could be allocated for training without affecting the arrangement.
Xu Zhiyu also noticed that Lin Mo was a little anxious during the conversation, but did not ask what happened.
Because Xu Zhiyu knew that Lin Mo was so anxious for them to train, it was obvious that they could not help with this matter. What they could do now was to speed up training.
Xu Zhiyu secretly made up his mind to train with all his strength so that he could be of help when something goes wrong, instead of being like now where he couldn't even ask what happened.
Wang Shoufei on the side obviously noticed the abnormality, but he had the same idea as Xu Zhiyu. In his opinion, if they could help, Lin Mo would definitely let them go.
After Lin Mo and Xu Zhiyu finished talking, Wang Shoufei asked: "Master, is there anything you can do to silence the gun and suppress the flame?"
Hearing this, Lin Mo smiled and said: "Don't worry Shou Fei, what you want can be achieved, even if you don't tell me, I will prepare it for you.
It just makes me a little surprised. After just a few days of training, you have entered the state and found problems during training. You have done very well."
Wang Shoufei felt a little embarrassed when he heard Lin Mo's praise, and quickly said: "Master, this is nothing, these are things we should think about.
Moreover, the young master has already prepared for this, we really don’t deserve such a compliment.”
Lin Mo listened and said with a smile: "I praise you, just accept it! I am different from you. These are not my own ideas. I only know these things from foreign research on some materials.
It’s really amazing that you are able to realize these problems on your own. I praise you and hope that you will continue to work hard and find more problems in training and improve them.”
After hearing this, Wang Feishou nodded and said, "Master, many of these things were proposed by Ying Long, so I will accept the praise on his behalf!"
Lin Mo heard this and said with a smile: "Well... then you can accept it for him! It seems that he does have some ideas.
You go back and tell him that if you find any problems during training, tell them. If you can't solve them, then come to me and I will try my best to find ways to help solve them."
Next, Lin Mo asked the two of them how each person performed during the training, and tried his best to understand each person's performance.
These performances involve Lin Mo's arrangements for everyone in the future. After all, not everyone is the same, and they are good at various things. Lin Mo needs these to arrange things suitable for everyone.
Lin Mo made these requirements clear to Wang Shoufei and Xu Zhiyu before training, and asked them to always pay attention to everyone's performance during training.
Because there were so many people under his command, Xu Zhiyu even made a special notebook to record everyone's performance in training every day.
Lin Mo took the notebook and read through it carefully, and found that the records were quite detailed, and everyone's various performances were recorded.
Lin Mo also discovered the suitable development directions for many people in the future, but Lin Mo did not make arrangements immediately. After all, what he is training now is basic things, which everyone must master.
Even if someone is not suitable for combat positions, Lin Mo still needs them to be able to master these shooting skills relatively proficiently. After all, the environment in this era is so complex, and they may be used at some point.
After talking to Wang Shoufei and Xu Zhiyu about the training, Lin Mo made a phone call and asked Wu Liangdong to come over, and then took the two of them to find Herbert.
Herbert's leather goods shop is much busier than before, not because there are more people buying things, but because there are more people making things.
Lin Mo looked at the defensive equipment made by the clerk who came from the clothing store as an apprentice and found that it was much better than the previous one.
Lin Mo encouraged a few people, then introduced Xu Zhiyu and Wang Shoufei to Herbert, and asked Herbert to prepare a batch of protective equipment for them.
After doing this, Lin Mo chatted with Herbert alone. First, he asked about the finished product he had ordered.
Second, they talked about letting him teach apprentices, and Herbert readily agreed. After all, he no longer had to rely on his furry craftsmanship to make a living.
After talking about the matter, the two chatted for a while before Lin Mo took his leave and left with the things that Herbert had made during this period.
Back at the trading house, news happened to come from Liao Tinghui, who knew that the Lu family's affairs had been settled.
After Lin Mo refused Liao Tinghui's offer to share the "harvest", he arranged for Wang Shoufei to tell Lu Xiaoying the news and take care of Lu Xiaoying until Lu Xiaoying was sent back.
As for Xu Zhiyu, he continued to stay in the trading company and was responsible for Lin Mo's protection today. Even though he knew that the Japanese spies would not retaliate in the short term, Lin Mo would still make preparations just in case.
Lin Mo waited in the lobby of the trading company for a while, and Wu Liangdong hurried over. When he saw Lin Mo, he flattered him enthusiastically.
Lin Mo dealt with Wu Liangdong, took the pen and paper sent by the staff, and took Wu Liangdong upstairs to find a reception room.
After the two sat down, Lin Mo wrote and drew on the paper while asking about the status of his order and whether he had encountered any trouble.
After Wu Liangdong answered Lin Mo's questions one by one, he said, "Master Lin, it's the pistol drum you asked us to study. We have already found it."
"Oh... it's done? It's pretty fast. How is the performance?"
Hearing this, Wu Liangdong smiled and said: "Master Lin, we found a place to try this. We shot a lot of bullets and it went very smoothly."
Lin Mo listened, and while continuing to write and draw, asked: "What about the capacity? How much ammunition capacity does it have?"
"The capacity is quite large. We have made several types, including 40-round ones, 50-round ones, and 60-round ones.
But it will be difficult to get more, and we haven’t figured it out yet. And no matter how much the capacity is, the drum will be too big and heavy, which will affect shooting.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After listening to this, Lin Mo put down his pen, thought about it, and said: "Then you can produce fifty rounds first! We will produce thirty sets and send them to me.
Let someone try it out.
But you can’t let go of the one with a larger capacity. You can go down and do some research and see if you can get around a hundred rounds.”
"This..." After hearing Lin Mo's words, Wu Liangdong hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Master Lin, we can also get this one with a hundred rounds.
It’s just that the drum is too big and heavy, and our imitation drum is tilted to one side and is too heavy, making it difficult to hold the gun straight when firing.
We previously tested the 60-round gun, and although it could be held upright with both hands, it would tend to go sideways once the gun was fired."
Hearing this, Lin Mo smiled and said: "Old Wu, this is not easy. If you put a drum on the other side, wouldn't it be crooked?"
"This..." Lin Mo's words made Wu Liangdong first stunned, then happy, and then asked with some doubts: "Master Lin, this... is this okay?"
"Of course!" Lin Mo explained with a smile: "This is not difficult, you make the bottom of the magazine a little wider and design it to feed ammunition in two rows.
Then connect the drums on both sides, so that one can be removed when pressing the bullet, and one can be supplied when feeding the bullet. Isn't that enough?
You know about two-row ammunition feeding? It’s the kind of ammunition feeding method used in rifles. If you don’t know, go find a rifle and check it out yourself.”
Wu Liangdong listened and said with a smile: "I know, I know, it's like a shell gun that feeds ammunition, right? We've imitated it before."
"That's good. Then go and try it yourself and see if you can get it as I asked. Once you get it, make fifty rounds like that."
Wu Liangdong listened and said with a smile: "Master Lin, don't worry! If you know how to do it, we will definitely be able to get it for you. Our craftsmanship is not bad."
Lin Mo listened, nodded, and while continuing to write and draw, asked: "Old Wu, since you can imitate the shell gun, why don't you imitate it later?
The shell gun is not as difficult as the Browning pistol. It is produced in many places in the country and many people buy it. It should not be a problem for you to continue to imitate it, right?"
When Wu Liangdong heard this, he felt a little embarrassed on his face, but he still said: "This is mainly a problem with the Browning pistol. That gun caused us a lot of trouble, and we really don't dare to imitate it later.
Moreover, the barrel we made is not very good. Although the shell gun cannot fire an explosive chamber, it will not be accurate after one or two hundred rounds.
Of course there were other reasons, so we put the gun-making thing aside and prepared to do business honestly. We didn't expect it to get worse. Without your order, Master Lin, we might have gone bankrupt by now."
After hearing Wu Liangdong's explanation, Lin Mo nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
However, when mentioning the shell gun, Lin Mo thought of something, that is, some shell guns can use the wooden gun box as a butt to reduce the force.
This gave Lin Mo an idea to get a butt for the M1911A1. After all, the recoil of the M1911A1 was not small. Adding a butt would make it easier to control the gun.
So Lin Mo told Wu Liangdong his thoughts.
After hearing this, Wu Liangdong thought for a while and said, "Master Lin, there is no problem in doing this. Just add a guide rail to the pistol grip and you can use the shell gun box.
It's just that the wooden box of this shell gun is a bit big. Will it be inconvenient to carry such a big thing around?"
Lin Mo listened and said with a smile: "Old Wu, you misunderstood me. I didn't ask you to add a wooden box, but a gun butt.
We have to design this gun stock ourselves, and we definitely can’t use it with a shell gun.”
After Lin Mo finished speaking, he took out a new piece of paper and started writing and drawing on it.
What Lin Mo drew was a gun butt, because Lin Mo remembered that later generations also had such a gun butt installed on a pistol, and it was simple, easy to carry and hide.
