On the one hand, Colt and S-Will basically monopolized the patents in the field of revolver before 1879, on the other hand, it must be admitted that the products they produce are indeed classics of the times.

There were several Colt revolvers in front of Joey, but the first thing that fell into Joey's eyes was the Colt m1873, a single-action revolver with a caliber (11 mm) diameter. There were two cavalry types with long barrels and artillery types with short barrels on the long table.

On beautiful mahogany or ivory carved handles, beautiful foals are carved, the company logo of Colt is proud of.

After the gun body of the mahogany handle is treated with high temperature oxidation, the entire gun body is shining with blue and black light. The gun body of the ivory handle is chrome-plated, and the silver gun body is carved with exquisite and complex patterns.

It is worthy of the name of Colt m1873 "Peace Defender".

After he looked away from the "Peace Defender", Joey's eyes fell on the revolver of the same famous Smith Wieson.

The SV products presented are also two models: 0.45-inch diameter m2 and Schofield.

I am afraid of comparison in everything, especially when the products of the two companies are put together, the gap in details determines that Colt's products are more beautiful than SVW's products.

God has made a decision long ago, and the more beautiful things are, the more dangerous things are.

Colt m1873 "Peace Defender" is paired with Colt.45's long bullet.

Guns are definitely good guns, bullets are strong enough

But Joey had a problem, that is, he was too young and had smaller palms, and he didn't have the ability to hold a gun in one hand.

After loading 6 rounds of bullets, the Colt m1873 was close to 1.3 kilograms. The weight of the gun plus the recoil during shooting, Joey really had no confidence that his little hand could be held with one hand.

The purpose of Joey holding the gun with one hand is to increase the shooting speed of a single-action revolver in this era. It is the method of "pulling" hammers commonly used by cowboys in western America. Specifically, Joey uses his right index finger to hold the trigger and uses his left palm or thumb to quickly pluck the hammers.

If you shoot with both hands, Joey may be able to hold the gun well, but it will waste the advantage of a single-action revolver in this era, with a light trigger and short stroke.

It turns out that before Joey pulls the trigger, he needs to manually press down the hammer to hang up the hammer and the trigger, raise the gun to aim at the target, and then pull the trigger, waiting for the trigger and the hammer to break away, let the hammer hit the striker forward under the action of the spring, the striker hits the base of the bullet, and finally fires the bullet.

The tall and strong Ahme obviously has no disadvantage in this regard. When m1873 is empty, he skillfully "pulled" the hammer, and the Colt m1873 in his hand makes a crisp sound.

Turning his head and looking at the two models of Smith-Westen, the same problem is still the same.

Looking at Ahme, a sense of powerlessness enveloped Joey, and Joey felt like he was digging a hole and jumping by himself.

The gun I made had to be finished with tears in my mind.

Colt m1873 was no longer used. Just as Joey was hesitating to choose which gun, a silver chrome-plated pistol in the corner of the desk attracted Joey's eyes.

This is a short barrel, a silver-shaped small pistol, at least among these pistols, it is so delicate and small, just like a beautiful woman standing among a group of black and thick strong men.

It was only when Joey picked it up that he was surprised to find that this was a 0.38-inch caliber, short-body tube Colt m1877, a double-action revolver. Although the accuracy was not as accurate as the single-action version, the double-action version was because the shooting procedure was simple and the gun was drawn quickly. Joey only needed to hold the gun in both hands, aim at the target and pull the trigger to shoot.

With the right gun in hand, Joey's previous life's idpa's archer's soul was possessed again.

The rules of shooting in the actual shooting range are not complicated at all. To put it simply, it is to rely on obstacles to shoot quickly at the target boards in the three areas a, b, and c while the shooter is moving. He will shoot at the target board in the area a, b, and c without adding time to hit the target board in the area b, and add 0.5 seconds to hit the target board in the area c, and add 1.5 seconds to hit the target board in the area c.

The calculation of the punishment is also very simple. If you take off the target for 2.5 seconds, you will deduct 3 seconds for a foul (not shooting in the cover of an obstacle), and you will deduct 5 seconds for a hit to the wrong target. After the normal game, if the target board is missing and you will not shoot, you will deduct 20 seconds. Before the game, during the game and after the game, the muzzle points to the safe area or fails to remove ammunition as required, the game results will be deducted.

To be fair, before the official game began, Joey took the brothers Ahme and Mandofiel to get to know the venue. During the familiarity, Ahme asked Joey about the rules of the game because he wanted to play, while Hasso Mandofiel said nothing and listened carefully to Joey's explanation.

The two princesses were holding umbrellas and chatting on the grass next to each other.

At the beginning of the official game, Little Mandofir followed approximately Ashim with Louis Monet stopwatch, while Big Mandofir followed Joey with the same stopwatch, doing the job of a recorder and referee.

At the beginning of the game, Hasso discovered the difference between the two big and small Joachim. Ahim aimed with one hand, straightening his arms, sideways, and closing his eyes. This is also the most common and popular pistol shooting method in Europe and the United States.

Hasso had never seen Joey's way of holding the gun. If it were described in detail, it would probably be slightly bent on his upper body, his legs spread out from the front and back, and his knees bent slightly. From the side, the whole body looked like a reverse-writing S-shaped shape. Joey's pistol was not far away from his body, but was held close to his chest with both hands.

In the eyes of the two princesses, Ashim's figure was elegant and graceful, while Joey was short, and with his gun-carrying posture, he really didn't have any aristocratic aura in it.

But at the age of 16, Hasso, who had participated in the Franco-Prussian War and witnessed the cruelty of the war, felt the threat of Joey's gun-holding method, like a leopard who was always ready to rush out.

The tall Hasso narrowed his eyes again.

As the game progressed, Hasso felt different again. Unlike Ashim's unchanging shooting posture when facing the target board, Joey sometimes straightened his hands forward and formed an equal-triangle shooting with his hands and his body. Sometimes his upper body twisted 45 degrees, his right arm holding the gun was straightened while his left arm was bent, and his head was tilted to the right, so that the right eye, gun and target board were in a straight line.

"Sophie, let's go now and tell my mother and Doris etiquette teacher that Jojo not only ruined grandpa's shooting range, deliberately dirty his clothes, shot without image, and bullied us without grace!" After that, the angry Fiodora pulled his sister Alice with one hand, turned around and left.

"Joy, we will complain to Mary!" Although Fiodora pulled her sister's left hand, she still tried hard to twist her body, waved her right fist, and bulged her cheeks and threatened Joy, "You, let's see!"

"Hey, Jojo, who is Mary?" Ahme couldn't help asking, "Why did Maggie say that?"

Even with his stern brother around, Ernst's eyes at Joey also contained curiosity of inquiry.

"Ah haha, the weather is so good today!" With curious eyes around, Joey looked up at the sky and said something nonsense about the British when they met for no reason.

Hasso obviously felt Joey's dilemma. Although he was not interested in the female name named Mary, he was very interested in Joey's shooting posture just now and couldn't help finding a step for Joey, "Dear Prince Waldma, can you ask a question? Your Highness, the reason why you chose m1877, in addition to the grip of the gun suitable for Your Highness's hand, it seems that the simplicity of using a double-action pistol is more suitable for Your Highness's shooting posture just now?"

"Your Highness's shooting method is to prioritize fire over aiming?"

Joey looked at Hasso Mandofier, wearing a Royal Prussian Army captain uniform, and became more and more convinced that the person who led the 6th Division of the Prussian Army across the western front in World War I was the military Junker of the Mandofier family.

Otherwise, I would not have seen so quickly the advantages of the Wei method and the c.a.r gun-holding posture he used.

"Hi, dear Hassor, we fought together on Easter, so, as my friend, please call me Joey, if you want, call me Jojo." Joey doesn't want to miss the opportunity to be friends with a future excellent general.

What's more, his son, Hasso Mandofire, was a famous German tank general in Joey's previous life, and was also the recipient of the Diamond Double Sword Oak Leaf Knight Cross.

After Hasso was willing to call Joy Joy, he also breathed a sigh of relief with Ernst Mandofir, Joy's best friend. These can be chatted in the form of friends, and meeting with a noble air is really boring.

Ernst quickly explained that he and his brother accompanied his father and Marshal Mandofir into the palace. It is said that the emperor summoned him specially. He learned from the attendants of Charlottemberg Palace that Prince Joachim was both in the palace, so he came here specially. As the elder brother, Hasso Mandofir was worried about his younger brother and accompanied him.

After Ernst finished speaking, Hasso couldn't help asking again, "Jojo, can you tell me why you took such a shooting posture just now?"

Some people like the shooting method a hundred years later, and Joey is very happy.

Revolver, even the semi-automatic/automatic pistol that will appear later, is the last weapon for short-term connection and is used to save lives. A soldier's highest demand for a pistol is always the shortest time to output the maximum firepower, rather than the precise shooting of slowly aiming.

To accurately aim at this matter, it’s better to leave it to the rifle.
