Romanian Eagle

Chapter 615 G33 Semi-Automatic Rifle

Hitler's coming to power also marked that Germany would embark on the road of expanding its arms and preparing for war, which was a challenge for Eder. Because the next large number of new weapons will be developed by various countries. For Romania, it will also mean challenges.

Fortunately, however, there is still good news. After years of research and development, the new rifle developed by Gadlier Defense has finally come to fruition.

This Gadlier Defense Company is the original Bucharest Arsenal, which was split after the end of World War I. Among them, the artillery was assigned to the new weapons factory in Lviv, which belongs to the rk company, and the production and research and development of firearms are retained.

I need to say more here. At present, the Romanian Arms Group has the following companies responsible for research and development. The Gadelier Defense Company is responsible for the development of firearms, the rk company is responsible for the development of artillery, and the Romanian State-owned Second Manufacturing Plant is responsible for the development and production of tanks (mainly Ploiesti Machinery Plant 1 and Lviv Machinery Plant 2).

Coanda Aircraft Manufacturing Company is responsible for the development and production of fighter jets, while Folkshani Aircraft Manufacturing Company is responsible for the development and production of reconnaissance aircraft and bombers. As for the research and development of passenger aircraft and transport aircraft, it is the responsibility of Constanta Aircraft Manufacturing Company.

The Navy's ships are the Varna Naval Shipyard, and only a few small warships are built at the Constanta Naval Shipyard. The main reason is that Varna is more suitable as a military port than Constanta, and the busy Constanta is not conducive to the construction of warships. As for Odessa, the best port in the Black Sea, it was not selected by the Navy because it was too close to the Soviet Union.

As for other equipment such as gas masks, poison gas, radar, etc., they are all produced by other companies. Many are purchased from civilian companies, all to reduce costs. In fact, the product quality of private companies is also good. As long as the inspection is done well, some private companies of military supplies can also do well.

Of course, the Gadlier Defense Company that Edel will go to is not included in this list. This is a standard state-owned enterprise.

Since it is a state-owned enterprise, there must be some common problems of state-owned enterprises, but as long as the tasks assigned by the military can be completed, as long as it is not excessive, neither Edel nor the military care about it.

It is no different from Edel going to other places. It is still the process of welcoming at the door. When the military arrives, a lot of people will come, but it is still headed by Fereit.

"Let's go see the results first."

Edel did not pay attention to the introduction of the general manager of the Gadlier Defense Company beside him, and directly proposed to take a look at the new gun first.

Without the slightest embarrassment of being ignored, the general manager named Ledermonk immediately led the way. "Your Majesty, the Chief of the General Staff, please."

The group led them to the shooting range. There are several tables on the side of the shooting range, with several sample guns on them, and a middle-aged man in a white coat and a little bald is waiting here.

"This is Mr. Walterland, our chief designer of firearms, and the chief designer of this semi-automatic rifle."

General Manager Ledermonk introduced the designer of this prototype gun.

"Hello, Mr. Walterland."

Edel held out his hand, and he always had the respect for technicians.

"Hello, Your Majesty, it's a pleasure to meet Your Majesty."

"Can you explain this gun to us?"

"Can."

In the presence of Edel and the military, Mr. Walterland began to explain the gun. "This is a semi-automatic rifle that we temporarily named g33, which was initially pre-researched in 1921. At that time, the bolt-action rifle in World War I was not strong enough and the submachine gun was too close, lacking 100-300 meters. It is specially developed for continuous firepower. Of course, we are not alone in developing semi-automatic rifles. As far as I know, the United States, Britain, France and other countries have plans to develop them, but we and Springfield in the United States have persisted.”

After introducing the origin, Mr. Walterland picked up a sample gun and continued. "This G33 semi-automatic rifle has a total length of 1112 mm and a barrel length of 617 mm. It uses a V-shaped rear sight and a blade-shaped front sight. The bolt uses a gas-operated, rotary locking bolt. The effective range is 800 Meters, but the best range is 450 meters. The weight of the empty gun is 439 kg, and the combat weight is 471 kg. Muzzle velocity: 835 meters per second. The 792x57 rifle is used.”

After speaking, Walterland picked up an empty magazine and said. "This is the magazine for the G33 semi-automatic rifle, which can hold ten rifle rounds. Enough to form suppressive firepower on the enemy, even without a machine gun."

Regarding Walterland's explanation, all the soldiers present except Edel are soldiers, so it is useless to know that it is useless, only the user can know whether it is useful or not.

"You go up and try this gun."

As soon as Feleit waved his hand at the back, someone naturally stepped forward to pick up the prepared rifle and began to test fire.

And Edel and the military are naturally waiting for the results of the test.

As a result, there were dense gunshots in the shooting range. These people were test shooters prepared by the military. They used different shooting frequencies to test the prototype guns in their hands.

No way, the rifle is the main weapon in the hands of the soldiers, and it must be guaranteed that it is worthy of the soldiers' trust. And now it's just the military's first trial. If the military is satisfied, the next step is to equip the troops in small batches. If the soldiers equipped with these rifles are also satisfied with them, they will naturally start a large number of changes.
