Chapter 339: Steady Results
“I brought you here to test your standard results before arranging your daily training schedule.”
Lu Yibin walked over and pointed those targets to Gu Qingjiu. “The targets over there are all a hundred-meters and can’t be changed. The shooting ranges here differ from those shooting ranges in the specialization building. The different targets on every level would record the performance of each individual and come up with a goal accordingly.
“Every time you practice with a target, regardless of which target it is, you need to scan your identity card. Else, the electronic target wouldn’t record your result.”
Gu Qingjiu nodded. There was indeed a huge difference between the shooting courses at the Shooting Department and the Specialization building.
Seeing that Gu Qingjiu had gained an understanding of the place, Lu Yibin cocked his head sideways. “Go over there and choose a gun. According to the rules set by the army, the M-75 model is to be used when training outside. But members of our shooting department should not be limited to just one type of gun. After you use the M-75, you might feel a great difference when you subsequently use other guns, even if you’re hitting the same target.”
“Use one more type, M-139.”
As he spoke, Lu Yibin walked to the armory where the guns were placed. He selected a gun that bore a slight difference from the one Gu Qingjiu usually used during training.
It was a gun with a pure black body. The only difference was this gun had a slightly straighter arc.
Lu Yibin introduced it to Gu Qingjiu. “M-139 specifically used during a shooting competition. It’s lighter than the 75, but the impact is similar. The recoil is also more or less the same.
“Since you’re used to using the 75, it might affect your performance once you start using the 139. But try and adjust accordingly.”
After he had finished speaking, he tossed the gun to Gu Qingjiu, who held it in one hand and picked up the 75 with her free hand to compare the two.
The 139 model was indeed lighter.
Different guns had different weights, so the impact would be different. For someone holding the gun, even a slight change could impact their performance greatly if they’re not used to it.
Maybe one might feel that they would hit a certain spot, but once they fire their shot the result may be totally different from their initial expectation.
Gu Qingjiu didn’t ask any excessive questions. After knowing the difference between the two guns, she picked up her gun and came to a target. She then loaded her gun and prepared to fire a shot.
They normally use hollow projectile cartridges during training.
According to the protocol, real bullets should be used only during training at the Shooting Department. But because of a private dispute, someone had killed someone with a gun before. Hence, unless the relevant instructor-in-charge is present, Lu Yibin wouldn’t ask Gu Qingjiu to train with real bullets.
When Gu Qingjiu was about to start her test, Lu Yibin entered a string of password into the machine next to her. “You can’t scan your identity card for today yet, so I’ll use my password to unlock this and record the results for your test.”
After he had entered the password, the electronic sensor behind Gu Qingjiu’s hundred-meters target lit up, indicating that it was activated.
Those people that were around the shooting range on the fifth level stopped practicing, and they all looked towards Gu Qingjiu with keen interest while she prepared for her test.
Gu Qingjiu used the old model 75 first.
Just like how she usually trained, she held the gun and stared at the target in front of her.
She slightly focused her gaze and very quickly she got into the zone.
Lu Yibin saw that Gu Qingjiu didn’t hesitate as she raised a gun and merely aimed at the target.
Bang!
She fired out one shot!
A wisp of green smoke emanated from the muzzle and a beep sounded from the faraway electronic board.
“Beep, target number 7, tenth ring!”
