"General Shrek, your opinion is very correct. Do you have any ideas for improvement?" Said betterhold.

"Improvement can start from two aspects." "Since one magazine is not enough, we can use two magazines," Herrick said

This kind of thinking exists in later generations.

Two standard 32 round magazines are connected into one with a dual magazine magazine, and a slot is opened at the bottom end of the shield between the barrel and the gearbox, so that the dual magazine magazine can slide along the bottom slot of the shield.

Two square magazine bamboo shoots are located behind the magazine bin, and two indicating locators are set in front of the magazine bin. When the bullets of one magazine on the left are used up, push the magazine bin to the left. At this time, the magazine on the right is just located at the ammunition supply port under the action of the locator.

Compared with taking the bullet from the bullet bag and pushing it into the gun chamber, this method only needs one thing at a time and greatly simplifies the steps! It can be said that it is quite clever!

When Shrek said it, everyone nodded in admiration!

If one is not enough, two!

"As for this kind of magazine, I think it can also be improved. The section of the current magazine is rectangular. We can change it to trapezoid, which can improve the reliability of ammunition supply."

In later generations, a 36 round double row double entry magazine was considered to be the best magazine with 9mm balabeirum pistol ammunition.

The biggest feature of this magazine is that the front and rear widths are different, the front is slightly narrow and the rear is wide, so the magazine section is similar to trapezoid.

The advantage of adopting this shape is that the bullet axis is not parallel to the bore axis, and there is a small included angle between the left and right rows of bullets and the central axis of the bore. It is convenient to regulate the bullets when pushing the bullets into the bore, so the bullet supply reliability is high.

At the same time, this form of magazine is not sensitive to dirt and temperature difference, which can reduce the phenomenon that the magazine shrinks and "squeezes" the internal bullets in cold weather.

Hilrick only provides ideas and specific scheme design for them to do.

"The other option is to play the drum." Hilrick continued.

In fact, although the mp38 series looks majestic, it has not been mass produced until the end of World War II. After fighting with the Soviet Union, the German army doesn't like the mp38 series and often picks up the Soviet bobosha to fight.

Why? Because bobosha is a 71 shot drum!

When the fire is interrupted, it is often the prelude to the arrival of death!

The fire endurance of 71 rounds of ammunition drum is much higher than that of 32 rounds of ammunition mp38!

In later wars, due to the excessive use of bosha submachine guns by German soldiers, the German army also specially studied an improved model of bosha submachine gun. This improved model can launch 9mm palabellum pistol ammunition fired by mp40 by improving bosha's barrel and cartridge clip interface.

So, at this time, Shrek put forward another opinion, can you play the drum?

If you play the same 71 rounds of drums, it must be more popular with front-line soldiers! Although using the drum playing mp38 will be more funny, it is a more suitable choice for the battlefield!

"Yes, general Shrek, we will seriously improve." Said betterhold.

In the past, the equipment department only asked questions, but now, xierik even said ideas for improvement, which is undoubtedly more effective. Bethholder was very excited and continued to ask xierik, "what's the problem?"

"The second problem is the insurance of submachine guns." Xierik continued to put forward his own opinion. In fact, this opinion is not so easy to find. It was put forward in later World War II materials. Now, xierik put forward it without hesitation.

The safety mechanism is just a simple card shoot in the gearbox, which blocks the pull handle to make the weapon ready for attack. When the gun is in the forward position, the weapon to be shot is not insured.

In this way, once the gun is hit, it will return to the rear position and may hook a bullet into the chamber and fire! In simpler words, it's easy to get angry!

On the battlefield, the soldiers' countermeasures are to mount the horse according to the local method, temporarily pull a belt on the barrel of the gun, and fix the pull handle with the torn end. Later, a gun insurance was added to solve the problem.

Now, in the design stage, this problem should be solved!

Chirac is talking. Many people remember that Chirac is definitely not a layman. He has a very broad mind and is more powerful than their weapon experts!

"Well, now let's talk about the last question." Sirik has already said the present problem, leaving only the last one.

"Simplify the production process so that this gun can be produced in large quantities and at low cost! Save our precious raw materials. " Said Shrek.

The craftsman spirit of Germany is to strive for perfection. For example, the most important gearbox is definitely cut. A large piece of metal is cut and cut on the bed, and finally becomes a small gearbox, which is quite wasteful! The waste is even heavier than the gearbox!

If you change to stamping process, you will greatly save raw materials! Almost no waste! Then it is completed by riveting and welding process.

In history, Germany didn't start to simplify the process until after the war. Now, hilrick has put forward that we must simplify the process and improve efficiency!

To this end, even if the machining accuracy is slightly reduced, it is also worth it! The processing accuracy of Soviet weapons is far lower than that of Germany. On the contrary, the weapons produced by the Soviet Union are more popular. Why? Simple and reliable! In wartime, it can be mass produced!

For Germany, which lacks resources, these are more important!

Xierik's trip had a great impact on Elma company. Xierik provided improvement suggestions and personally promised that this weapon would be mass produced and equipped. In history, Elma company mainly produced Mauser 98K rifles in 35 years, but now it has become a company specializing in the production of submachine guns!

A few months later, the improved submachine gun, named mp35, first entered the armored forces, and then entered more army units, which was highly praised.

The task of Shrek is not over. After all, Shrek knows that submachine gun is not the most suitable for the needs of future war. It is just a helpless substitute.

Look at the future generations. What is the most suitable? Assault rifles, of course!
