My German Empire

In the later generation, the German MP44 and the Soviet AK47 of the Soviet Union is one of the topics of the military fans.

The German MP44 is the nasal ancestors of modern assault rifles. It lays the basic elements of modern assault rifles, such as the middle power rifle bullet system, piston air action, 30 arc-shaped magazines, etc. ...

These are undoubtedly greatly inspired by Kalashnikov. But these are just the influence on design concepts and product positioning, which does not mean that AK47 has implemented MP44 in specific implementation.

The MP44 and AK47 is the largest, both of which are long stroke piston air, the piston and the piston links are above the barrel. The high-pressure gunpowder gas, the gunpowder gas promotes the piston and the piston linkage After the movement, complete the unlocking, shell, resolvity, bullet, and blocking action composition.

In addition, specific implementation is almost completely different.

However, the mounting method of these two guns is different: the AK47 transmitting mechanism is fixed in the casing, the trigger is mounted on the bottom of the casing, holding the grip to screw only on the casing of the wood, without it does not affect the gun. Function; and the MP44 transmitting mechanism, the transmitter, the grip is a component, and the pin is connected to the rear of the tank groove, and there is a pin behind, and the grip is connected, the gun is connected to the rear of the open casing.

The maximum difference is the latching principle; the MP44 uses the popular gun offset locking mechanism, while the AK47 uses the gun rotary locking mechanism (this is not the Calash Nikov invented, early 90 The gun rotary locking mechanism appears in the era); both of these are completely different.

Although the two have advantages and disadvantages, but the offset closed lock is not as reliability and life, and the G36 rifle designed by the German HK is abandoned in the back-off mode. mechanism.

The basic structure is more complicated, and the empty gun is 4.62 kg. After loading the magazine, it is 5.12 kg, which is more than the US M1 Glandard rifle. Therefore, although the Allies was shocked by its fire, after the real thing was analyzed, they felt too cumbersome.

Moreover, there are many MP44 parts, and it is easy to fail by hitting or bumps, and reliability is far less than stuck or semi-automatic rifles. This is also the nose of the US military, because reliability is the weight of the weapon.

So Americans also developed M1 / ​​M2 Carbun, which also developed M1 / ​​M2 Carbun, which was also used in the Second World War II, but did not treat them as soldiers' main weapons.

In contrast, the AK47 weight is lighter, the cost is lower, and it is more durable. Until in the War of Vietnam, the US soldiers also took a cumbersome M14 in the jungle. After being used by Vietnamese with ak47 as a teacher, they found out what kind of naive, actually and a piece of artifact lost .. ...

arm.

Because of certain extremely reliability, abandon a good weapon, or reduce the basic performance of weapons under certain conditions, and the result is behind the overall situation.

After the Americans realized that they were insufficient, they quickly sent it to the Vietnam, and opened the Curtain of the small diameter weapon. However, this is not much related to MP44.

Note that Qiake decided to replace the MP44, and there is no large-scale equipment equipment for the MP44 at this time, but in each class, the factory is not large, and the replacement will not Too much trouble.

Seeing the finished product, Yatik is not a pleasure, this is not AK47, just use 7 × 43mm bullets.

Yinni made a few more improvements, completely became a AKM assault rifle.

Compared with the AK-47,

The parachute troops use it to improve the type AKMS, slightly shortened length and reduce weight. Exhibition gun is full of 920mm, the gun is folded with a full length of 655mm, the full shot of 3.6kg, 1.6kg than MP44.

Jenik picked up with the front of this Akms and pulled a few shots. "Does the soldiers satisfied with this gun?"

Stutttendent also knows the character of Jenik, and does not like to be a slap in the style, if it is reported. "Soldiers said that this gun is not as good as MP44, in addition to the MP44, especially the weight is greatly reduced by the MP44."

"That's good." Natik nodded, put down AKMS, next to the light machine gun RPK developed by AKM (7 × 43 mm ammunition). The basic structure of the two guns is exactly the same, and most parts can be interchanged, which has a significant advantage on the battlefield, which is very conducive to actual needs. It can be said that it is equivalent to the AK pulse, it has the advantages of AKM, but there is better than AKM in some respects.

The "guns" development trend has been developed, but the AK-47 / Akm performance of the M-43-type 7.62 × 39 mm intermediate gun is very excellent, not only reliable, the failure rate is small, which can be under various harsh conditions. Based on the basis of the assault rifle, it is also the prototype of the RPK light machine gun in the world, which is a protruding of the RPK light machine gun in the world. It has officially used the gun in the 59th to replace the RPD as a shroud.

Its structure is simple and convenient for a large number of manufacturing, high reliability, can adapt to the advantages of various harsh environments, and it is said that there have been a 1.2 million gun bomb and the movable part is still intact. In addition to ...

In addition, many parts between the two can be compatible. RPK specializes in 75 bullets can also be universal with AKM's cassette, reducing logistics pressure, and improves its battlefield applicability.

However, in many places, RPK is different from AKM, although it is riveting the riveting machine along the AKM, the proportion of stamping parts has improved, and many parts riveting process are also changed to the welding process; using long heavy gun, equipped with foldable two The fastener to increase the shooting accuracy is also convenient to shoot, the effective range and the rapid speed of the muzzle are higher than the AK-47. In addition, it can use 40 strand or 75 shot drums to be bombed. By increasing the bulk capacity, the thermal power is maintained, and the magazine also uses a light alloy, which can be universal with the original steel magazine, and later developed. A glass fiber plastic compression molded magazine can be universal, alleviating logistic pressure.

There is another problem with the RPK light machine gun. This will not be replaced by the gun tube, which further limits its extension of its radio speed, because once the tube is overheating, it will directly affect its role. Therefore, when using the RPK shooting, it is necessary to deliberately control the radio speed, and the continuous shooting cannot be performed for a long time. In general, RPK is also an excellent light machine gun, which is mainly reflected in its good reliability.
