It depends on what kind of soldier the Qing army is.
The green soldiers in various places do not have any good weapons, they only have broadswords, spears, shotguns, bows and arrows.
The rifles used by the Beiyang Army (regiment training) are imported from Britain, the United States, and Germany, and a small part are made in China.
The British imported two kinds: Martini and Senaide.
Martini gun?
Martini gun, full name Henry Martini gun (Henri-Martini), because it uses the rifle patent invented by Henry and Martini It is named after the invention of the patent for the lift-type locking bolt. It was officially adopted by the United Kingdom in 1871, and a patent fee of eight shillings was paid for each one made. The gun was an excellent breech-loading rifle in the world at that time. ?
Shandong Machinery Bureau built its own machine in 1876 by Zeng Zhaoji and copied it. In less than 2 months, more than 120 machines were produced, and the quality was comparable to the British model. Later, Sichuan Machinery Bureau also manufactured it.?
Main factors: Caliber: 11.43mm? Barrel length: 843mm? Gun weight: 4.1kg? Muzzle velocity: 412 meters/second?
Snyder Gun
The Snider Rifle, the full name is Enfield Snider Rifle (Enfield Snider). This gun was designed by the American Joseph Snider. At that time, the British government offered a bonus of 20,000 pounds to solicit breech-loading gun designs. Schneider's method was improved on the Enfeld-type muzzle-loading rifle. The upper half of the rear end of the barrel was cut off, and a valve and firing pin were installed. , open the valve when loading, use the original hammer to become a breech-loading rifle, because the old front-loading gun can be changed into a breech-loading gun at a low cost (only 1 pound), starting in 1867 The British adopted it widely, "so all the breech-loading guns made in Britain were based on its style." When the Tianjin Machinery Bureau made imitations in 1874, it purchased several locking devices from British businessmen and changed the old Enfeld muzzle-loading gun into a breech-loading Serpentine gun to improve performance and save costs. Sichuan Machinery Bureau also imitated this gun in 1887, but it was not put into production.?
Main details: Caliber: 14.66mm, gun length: 1397mm, barrel length: 990mm, gun weight: 4.4kg, Muzzle velocity: 366 meters/second, sight range: 800 yards, rate of fire: 18 rounds/minute?
Limington rifle (Remington) imported from the United States
Lin Ming Edge-mounting needle gun?
Lin Ming Edge-edge needle gun was launched by Remington in the United States in 1865. The locking method is rolling locking. It began to be equipped with the US army in 1866. This gun was only manufactured by the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau. From 1867 to 1883, Japan produced more than 25,000 rifles and 717 carbine rifles. ?
Main elements: Caliber: 13mm? Gun weight: 4.2kg? Range: 100-1000 yards?
Lin Mingdeng was shot with a needle gun?
Lamington's center needle gun, the locking method improves the combined chamber and locking mechanism of the original rolling locking method, making it simpler and more accurate. China purchased 14,400 guns between 1871 and 1884, and manufactured them at the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau from 1884 to 1890. Production was discontinued due to fire defects. There are 10,000 pieces in stock, but no one can use them. Later, a sliding cover was added behind the original bolt spring, which solved the misfire defect and can still be used. In addition to Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau, this gun was also manufactured by Sichuan, Tianjin and other Machinery Bureaus. ?
Mauser rifle 1871/84 rifle imported from Germany?
Mauser 1871 rifle, this gun was invented by Peter Paul Mauser, a famous German firearms design expert, in 1866 It was invented in 1871 and officially adopted by the German army in 1871. The bolt rotation locking mechanism is adopted, and the locking thrust is located at the machine head. When locking, the tenon is supported in the locking at the front end of the sleeve, and is symmetrical to the left and right, and the force is evenly distributed. Due to its smooth and reliable locking and firing mechanism, it has been widely used in modern rifles. In addition to Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau's trial production of 12 units in 1883, Sichuan, Henan, Guangdong, Guangxi and other Machinery Bureaus have successively produced them.
? Main elements: caliber 11mm, gun length 1292mm, barrel length 852mm, gun weight 4.54kg, range 300-1600 yards (there is another carbine with a gun length of 953mm, barrel length of 648mm, gun weight of 3.2kg, range of 200 1100 yards)?
Domestic quick-fire gun
The quick-fire gun is the first repeating gun designed and manufactured by China. In 1890, Li Hongzhang, the governor of Liangjiang, saw that it was made in Jiangnan. The guns made by the bureau were all old-style, and they were not suitable for imitating British South Xia guns. Instead, they "ordered to focus on imitation of the Mannlicher and New Mauser types." In the same year, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau successively imitated guns from various countries after purchasing them. Austrian Mannlicher and British New York guns. In 1891, he carefully studied the advantages and disadvantages of Mannlicher, Xinli and Nanxia guns, took the strengths of each gun, designed a fast rifle, and produced six prototype guns. In 1892, it was sent to the Tianjin Ordnance Bureau for testing. The inspection results were "equal to the new German Mauser, and its speed and line are superior to the Mannlicher." It was officially put into production that year, replacing the Li-Italian rifle. The holster, bolt, safety, bayonet and other parts of the Kuaili rifle are of the Mannlicher style. The magazine is of the fixed vertical feed type, the bolt is of the straight-pull type, and the barrel and rear sight are still of the Xinli rifle type. , the magazine adopts the Nanxia gun style, and bullets can be loaded at both the front and rear. ?
Main elements: ? Caliber 8mm? 6 riflings? Total gun length 1323mm? Gun weight 4.3kg? Muzzle velocity 489 meters/second? Sight range 274-1919 meters. ?The magazine has a capacity of 5 rounds, and the bullets are smokeless round-nose bullets. ?
There are two types of machine guns: Maxim and Norden Flying
The Maxim heavy machine gun, called a stun gun in China, was invented by the British-American Hiram Steve Invented by Vince Maxim in 1883, it was the earliest barrel-type automatic machine gun. When firing, the gunpowder gas pressure pushes the barrel back to complete the automatic cycle. When the gun was still in the trial production stage, the Qing government showed a strong interest in this powerful new weapon. As early as 1888, the Jinling Manufacturing Bureau began to introduce imitations. From then on, China began to enter the manufacturing period of heavy machine guns. Since the gun was still in its infancy at that time and used black powder lead bullets, it was found to be unsuitable after imitation. Production was stopped in 1893 and only more than 30 guns were produced, some of which were used on the Korean battlefield.
The multi-barreled machine gun/four-barreled machine gun (Nordenfeldt? Gun) was invented by the American Nordenfeldt Gun in 1878. Like the Gatling gun, it is actually a machine gun or machine gun. The principle is to arrange multiple barrels in parallel, turn a handle by hand, and the bolts behind each barrel fire in sequence, with a rate of fire of 350 rounds per minute. Range 2000 meters
