Chapter 725 All-Round Crushing
After confirming that it was an M416, Li Changheng cursed secretly in his heart, and turned to Banks and said, "Let the base self-inspect immediately, and any M416 must be checked out."
"Then tell Bonaparte, I want to retire from the Virginia base during this year, and buy the M416 enlistment list at my own expense."
"Understood", Banks nodded, and walked out of the store to convey Li Changheng's order through the vehicle communication equipment.
Speaking of which, the United States is probably the only one in the world that allows soldiers to use their own firearms during combat.
And when you retire, you can buy the firearms you used during your service.
Therefore, Li Changheng is convinced that M416 is really likely to flow into the people.
The only thing that has not been determined is whether there is a management problem from Knight Shield, or it is from the Virginia Naval Base.
Fortunately, the self-inspection of the Knight Shield base is not difficult. Barney and Trenches have managed it for so many years, and they have never made a mistake.
However, if any problems are really found out this time, Li Changheng will definitely take the opportunity to rectify them.
The Virginia Naval Base bought 3,000 M416 production authorizations at a friendly price of 100,000 US dollars.
Since there is a clear quantity and the number of the gun, it is not difficult to find out.
What I am most afraid of is the production base, which secretly produces and sells it on the black market.
However, if there is such a thing, the number will certainly not be many.
After all, there are too many, and you can't hide it if you want to, not to mention that once Li Changheng makes a fuss, the US Navy alone will not let go of that gun manufacturer.
And Li Changheng can also easily sue the company that specializes in the production of small guns for the US Navy.
Maybe even take the opportunity to buy this company at a very low price.
As for why Li Changheng is willing to authorize, the purpose is nothing more than to use the US Navy to conduct large-scale tests on M416.
The testing time for each new firearm is often calculated in years.
The number of ammunition fired, thousands of rounds are pediatrics.
In the extreme test, hundreds or thousands of guns of the same type, each with 10,000 rounds of ammunition are normal data, plus terrain tests on deserts, jungles, sand and other terrains.
It's not something that ordinary companies can afford.
Of course, Li Changheng really didn't care about the testing cost of several million dollars, but Lieutenant General Laverne Bell of the Navy was willing to help, and he could get closer to the Navy and try the testing equipment and personnel of the Marine Corps for free. A fool would not agree.
The rewards are also very impressive. More than a dozen improvement proposals and two years to finalize the initial model are not something that can be done with money.
Subsequently, not only Knight Shield was trying M416, but even several special operations teams of the Navy were also trying M416.
In this way, when elites selected from various units joined the SEALs and retired from the SEALs, they joined the Knights Shield.
The vast majority of people do not need to change their firearm trial habits at all, and can achieve the best combat state by picking up the M416.
The only trouble is that the probability of the US Army purchasing M416 in the future is very low if it is favored by the Navy.
Fortunately, Li Changheng doesn't care how much money the M416 can make, and to put it bluntly, if the Marine Corps really purchases it in the future, he doesn't have a large-scale production company.
If the murderer who killed 8 New York policemen, the weapons used were really exported from the production enterprises designated by the Navy.
Li Changheng will definitely thank that greedy guy, and then swallow this gun production company in one gulp.
In the future, the famous guns invented by CZ75, 83, Glock and other countries will not only be easy to start and buy patents in advance, but they will also be able to enjoy decades of dividends in the US police and civilian markets.
Moreover, Li Changheng is of American nationality and has a very strong military relationship, so it will definitely not be like another world.
Famous guns produced outside the United States will encounter various difficulties and restrictions if they want to enter the American market.
Then he joined the American Rifle Management Association by the way.
As a bigwig with a private armed force, and a gun proponent with his revolver all the time, Li Changheng is definitely unwilling to have his own private armed force restricted on the issue of guns.
Moreover, as an association with more influence and wealth than the Truck Drivers Association in the United States, it has more than 4 million members and at least 20 million supporters.
Li Changheng will definitely join the association and make preparations for using the association to do things in the future.
Now that there is a clear direction, it is much easier to find out who retired and buy the M416 they used.
Moreover, if the scope is shortened to a few states such as New York and New Jersey, the number of people will be even smaller.
While waiting for Banks' reply, Dario continued to explain to Li Changheng while checking the bullet holes in the specialty store.
"Boss, it seems that after two policemen were killed at the front door, the owner of the specialty store took a knife and planned to sneak attack, but failed. Instead, he was hit in the heart by two bullets and died immediately.
However, the second shooter should have used an MP5 or Uzi submachine gun. "
Wearing tactical gloves, Dario picked up a 9mm shell casing and showed it to Li Changheng, and then said, "The second murderer probably didn't intend to shoot at the beginning.
However, this guy's mental quality is good, and his marksmanship is not bad. He was attacked at close range, and he was calmly shot in the heart with extremely accurate marksmanship.
Not retired veterans who have fought in actual combat, or at least retired soldiers from the second-line special forces. "
As soon as Li Changheng heard it, he knew what Dario meant, if this person was from a seal or a green beret.
The accomplice shot, and he would never just shoot two shots to kill a person who wanted to kill himself, and let the accomplice deal with 4 policemen alone.
Just hesitant about this point, it is difficult to be selected by the seals and green berets.
"The other two policemen came in through the back door, and the policeman walking in front, like the two policemen who came in by the front door, had no defense against being hit in the head.
The last policeman hid behind the wine cabinet, but he was still taken advantage of the strong penetrating power of the weapon. A dozen bullets penetrated the wooden cabinet, hit his body and fell to the ground.
Then he was shot in the forehead at close range.
This murderer can be regarded as a master, and he is cruel and merciless. "
A professional explained that Li Changheng looked at the wine cabinet that had been smashed by bullets, as well as the location of the bullet casings on the scene.
Soon a rough crime scene traceback was formed in my mind.
Two with M416s and Uzis, probably Marines, or even undrafted retired SEALs.
Against the four policemen who only held revolvers, not only did they have an absolute advantage in firepower, but their tactical level was even more crushing.
Not to mention, the police also entered the specialty store separately and were ambushed by the murderer.
In this case, even ordinary gangsters can win.
Li Changheng sighed helplessly, and with a sympathetic expression on his face, he apologized to Inspector McKenna and the other New York policemen who followed in.
Then I heard the exclamation of my subordinates from inside the specialty store.
The 6 guards who were with him for a moment immediately raised their guns, 4 pointed at the passage, and 2 pointed behind him.
Banks and Blade, on the other hand, stood in front of him and led him into the bunker.
