Chapter 1193: Glock

Take decades of data from the U.S. police as an example. In actual gun battles, there are vehicles, indoor obstacles, and other bunkers.

If a clip can hit one shot, it is already considered a good marksmanship.

And, more often than not, it targets the body rather than the head.

Therefore, for many American policemen and ordinary people, a pistol with a large amount of ammunition is definitely more attractive.

In the future, Glock, which is known for its large ammunition capacity, will operate regardless of cost.

The private custom company quickly produced two types of Glock, all steel and plastic parts, according to his memory, the parts drawings he saw from the video, and the names of the most critical polymer materials.

After Li Changheng finished assembling, of course he would not test the gun himself, but the cost of more than 200,000 US dollars for the experiment was worthy of his efforts.

And, predictably, once the Glock spread, it was polymers that made the most money.

The gun tester of the private customization company picked up the gun without any hesitation, and fired a bullet at the ten-meter target with a bang bang bang.

While Andre and Frank were pleasantly surprised and astonished by the normal loading capacity of 17 rounds, Colt's Benny Rodri turned pale instantly.

Since its invention, the M1911 has been the first choice of the US military and law enforcement agencies.

The advantages of high power, stability, and many derivative models cannot cover up the shortcomings of only loading 7 rounds and insufficient firepower.

Moreover, 1911 was so successful that the US army was reluctant to change it after decades of use.

As for the problem that the patent protection period is earlier than 20 years, it is not a problem for capitalists at all.

Every upgrade means that new patents can be used to limit opponents.

When faced with the improved model and the old models produced by other companies, customers will definitely prefer the improved model.

Of course, it does not mean that Glock is necessarily better than 1911, but when law enforcement officers such as the US police need to face the increasingly powerful firepower of criminals, 17 rounds of bullets are more reassuring.

And with the popularity of Mozambique's tactical shooting mode, the deadly way of shooting the body twice first, and then hitting the head is indeed far more effective than killing with one shot in actual combat.

Therefore, it is not that 1911 is bad, but that it has not adapted to the market under the new situation in the United States.

Otherwise, 1911 will not be the first choice among special forces and elite forces.

But this choice is an auxiliary weapon in the hands of elite marksmen with excellent marksmanship when they have a long gun.

The side also proves that this weapon cannot keep up with the times.

Benny Rodry, who knew this very well, saw the gun tester take out a long magazine with 30 rounds of ammunition and shoot with a bang bang bang.

Then I was stunned again, took out 50 rounds of drums, like a submachine gun, and directly smashed the 5-meter target into a sieve, I couldn't help getting more frustrated.

No need to think about it, as long as this new pistol passes the test, novices from the police, military, etc., and ordinary people who have firepower first, will most likely choose this gun.

Correspondingly, Colt's most sold revolvers and 1911 will also drop sharply with sales.

The problem of the M416 has not been resolved yet, and it is about to face the competition of new pistols. This is a trend that directly wants to kill Colt.

But to the surprise of Benny Rodri, Andre and Frank.

Li Changheng actually smiled and said to Benny, "This kind of weapon is authorized for you to produce. If I only charge a patent fee of 10 dollars, you will be responsible for the testing and approval. How about it?"

"make a deal."

Benny Rodri shouted God in his heart, and at the same time muttered that Li Changheng was a vampire.

However, although he felt that the patent fee of 10 US dollars was twice as expensive as the market price of a normal designer, Benny agreed without hesitation.

One is that Li Changheng promised not to target Colt, and the other is that with the continuous increase in the price of weapons caused by inflation, $10 was really ridiculously high two or three years ago.

But it is not unacceptable now. Anyway, when a new weapon comes out, the price will definitely not be low.

This requires a very topical news to attract more customers.

The authorization of 10 US dollars, to a certain extent, also comes with Li Changheng's advertising fee.

Based on this calculation, Benny felt that Colt had actually made a profit.

But Li Changheng did not suffer, and the big money is not weapons, but new polymer materials.

To promote this polymer material, the outside world must see the advantages of this material.

At the same time, he can use the Glock, which is bound to sell well, to retaliate against the weapon manufacturer who had calculated him before.

As soon as Benny Rodri agreed, Li Changheng was not worried that he would go back on his word or make fun of himself.

One patent is in his hands, and the second Andre is a witness. No matter how he retaliates against Colt in the future, the upper echelon of the United States will not say anything.

After getting Li Changheng's consent, Benny Rodri immediately started Glock.

Fortunately, although he is very jealous of the carved steel version, he knows better in his heart that the custom-made guns are only toys for super rich people like Li Changheng.

A little bit of manual modification costs hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of dollars, which is not a product that ordinary people can afford.

After receiving the Glock made of polyester, Benny took the gun without a magazine in his hand and weighed it a few times in surprise as soon as he got started.

I immediately understood that this gun must have used a lot of engineering plastics, so it would be more than half lighter than the 1911.

And this is definitely a marketing point for ordinary people, even women, but at the same time Benny is worried about the instability of plastic.

Fortunately, after thinking about Remington’s precedent of using plastic in rifles in 1959, major firearm design companies have been constantly experimenting and using new materials over the years.

Moreover, after the fact that many engineering plastics have already surpassed steel in many statistics, Benny felt relieved a lot.

Then he asked the tester, "Has this weapon been tested to its limits?"

After looking at Li Changheng and seeing him nodding, the gun tester said without reservation, "We have done a continuous shooting test with 30 rounds of magazines.

After 17 clips, there were signs of the polymer guide melting, but I don't think anyone is going to fire 510 rounds in a row like we do.

Other hot and cold tests ~lightnovelpub.net~ are better than steel firearms. "

Benny's face was overjoyed when he heard that, and 17 30-round magazines were fired, which is 510 rounds of bullets. In actual use, even if the MP5 also uses 9mm bullets, no one will fire 17 magazines continuously.

In addition, the hot and cold tests are better than steel weapons, and Benny instantly felt that this kind of weapon was more expensive than MP5, and most of them were bought by people.

The only problem is that Li Changheng's custom-made weapons are definitely better than those used in mass production.

However, these are minor issues.

The only trouble is how to keep costs down.

After firing six or seven clips by himself, Benny felt a significant change in the rate of fire, and immediately dared not try the gun again.

But he is very satisfied with this harvest.

And Li Changheng was also very satisfied.
