Chapter 147 The Chain Saw from Hell

Few people know Grunov's full name, and Liu Lang is one of them.

Grunov Victor, designer of the machine gun MG42 machine gun.

If someone asks which weapon is the strongest killing weapon, Liu Lang will definitely blurt out the words "MG42". Although all kinds of guns are emerging all over the world, no weapon can be compared with MG42.

This is the world's first firearm made using metal stamping technology. It has a nearly simple appearance. The original words of the spies lurking in the country of Zhouhui: This is really a shoddy weapon, a piece of iron piece and an iron pipe. The only conclusion all the spies came to is: Zhouhui is no longer able to do it. They lack raw materials at the extreme, and even the machine guns at their core tactical use such simple and rough manufacturing technology.

Only the ordnance experts knew that it was not that Zhou Huiguo was no longer able to do it, but that Zhou Huiguo was already ahead of them in terms of metal stamping technology.

Liu Lang also knew that the successful research of MG42 was not only a breakthrough in metal stamping technology, but also an important breakthrough in gun production technology. Grunov himself was not a gun designer, he was an expert in metal stamping technology. At that time, because the front-line troops had a large demand for machine guns, he believed with a professional perspective that it was difficult to meet such needs according to traditional gun manufacturing technology (it used mechanical processing, used a solid piece of metal to be processed by lathes, milling machines, etc., and cut off unnecessary parts. The metal utilization rate was only about 25%, which wasted materials and a lot of labor hours). He believed that it was inevitable that machine guns would be manufactured using metal stamping technology. In fact, MG42 produced by metal stamping technology not only saved materials and labor hours, but also became more compact. This was very practical for the Zhouhuiguo, which lacked metal resources.

The ordnance experts guessed the beginning, but did not guess the end. They all underestimated the horror of the MG42 machine gun. Even until the end of the war, they still did not create a machine gun that could be comparable to the MG42 machine gun. The MG42 proved the genius design of the designer Grunov with practical combat.

Whether it is in the ice and snow at minus forty degrees Celsius, the low bushes, the hot desert, or the piles of gravel and rubble, the MG42 is the absolute fire support of the Zhouhui Army and the nightmare of enemy soldiers!

The most profound impression of the MG42 by Allied soldiers is its gunshot.

The minimum firing rate of the MG42 machine gun is 1,000 rounds per minute and the maximum firing rate of the machine gun exceeds 1,300 rounds per minute. It is said that people cannot distinguish a single gunfire.

The MG42 shooting sound is not the "did" sound of a machine gun, but the "did" sound similar to the high-speed rotating chainsaw. Some soldiers also describe it as tearing apart a large piece of linen. The recruits have nothing to do with this, and the veterans are most reluctant to hear is this demonic sound. For them, this sound is the call of death.

This is inevitable, because of the high rate of fire of MG42, the shooter can also shoot out five or six bullets every time he pulls the trigger.

If an unfortunate soldier is shot by MG42, he will be shot several times in an instant, and his life is unlikely to be alive.

At the same time, because the MG42 has a fast firing speed and large bullet consumption, the continuous shooting of the gun body is obviously vibrating, the shooter requires good shooting skills and experience in using machine guns. Generally, new recruits are not competent. Therefore, in the army, the shooter of the machine gun squad is generally the best shooting skills in the squad.
