A pistol made by Mao Se Arsenal. One of the earliest automatic pistols in the world. Invented by the German Federer brothers and named after Mao Se. The gun is 288 mm long, 7.63 mm in caliber and weighs 1.24 kg. The ammunition has 20 magazines, and the initial velocity of the bullet is 425 meters per second. The shooting mode is single shot and continuous shot, the shooting speed is 900 rounds per minute, and the effective range is 50-65,438+050 meters. This kind of pistol has the advantages of great power, reliable action and convenient use, and is widely circulated in many countries in the world. Imitation has a long history in China and is widely used in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression. The "mauser gun" and "box gun" in the 20th ring refer to this kind of pistol.
Mauser gun, also called box gun in China, is officially called Mauser military pistol. Mao Se factory was patented on189565438+February 1 1, and it was officially put into production the following year. Because its holster is a wooden box, it is also called a box gun in China. There is a fully automatic model called Speed Machine, and the factory in Mao Se is called M7 12 rapid-fire model (Schnellfeuer), and193/KLOC-0 was mass-produced in May. The word "speed machine" can often be seen in many novels in our country. When I was a child, Wang Qiang, the author's favorite Flying Tigers, was a man carrying two "speed machines" to fight the devils. Another little-known name for mauser pistol is self-propelled pistol. Many people think that only rapid-fire pistols are self-propelled, which is incorrect. In fact, the self-propelled pistol has always been a formal generic term for this kind of pistol in China.
The earliest mauser pistol was designed by Fidler (Fidel, Friedrich and Josef Feedler) of Mao Se Arsenal. However, the last patentee of this gun is the owner of Mao Se Arsenal, so the mauser pistol is also called Mao Se pistol.
1896, Mao Se Arsenal hopes to produce muskets for the German army. However, it was not until 1939 that mauser guns were discontinued in Mao Se factory that no country in the world adopted mauser guns as the standard weapons of the army. In these decades, it is estimated that Mao Se factory has produced about one million different mauser guns. The imitation production in other countries is several times that of this one. It's not because the mauser pistol is of poor quality and is not used by armies of all countries, but because it is too expensive. As a pistol, it is too big to equip the European troops, and as a rifle, it is really difficult to get up and down, and it is in a dilemma.
As the saying goes, muskets are really popular with users in China. In the first half of the 20th century, China was in dire straits. Warlords of various factions are in a scuffle and are in urgent need of weapons to fight. At that time, the Japanese controlled the western arms exports to China, but the musket as a pistol was not one of them, so the musket became the first choice of the armed factions.
In China's struggle against imperialism, feudalism and aggression, the people's armed forces also seized a large number of enemy weapons to arm themselves. Therefore, the People's Army is also equipped with such mauser guns in large quantities. Zhu Deyong, commander-in-chief of the uprising troops who fired the first shot of Nanchang Uprising, used a mauser pistol.
German mauser guns have been mass-produced for 40 years, and the interior has hardly changed. It can be said that the original design is almost perfect and there is nothing to improve. Dismantling mauser guns basically requires no tools. Only one bullet of a mauser pistol can disarm the gun. The box gun is a typical ugly and almost romantic one.
