Gun-ota ga Mahou Sekai ni Tensei Shitara - Chapter 147

TN I am sorry folks. I haven’t been able to translate much these past weeks because my workload has increased. Now, I am really tired. If anyone wishes to take over some of the works I’ve been translating, please feel free. Just tell me you will do it. If not, I will continue to translate them, but whenever I have the time.

“Lute sama, yes, please say ‘ah’♪.”

“Ahhhhh.”

I ate a piece of cake stuck in a fork presented by Meiya in a maid outfit. When I ate the cake, she happily said.

“Ahhhhhhh ~~~ ♪. I can serve Lute sama …! Is there such happiness? No, it isn’t!”

At first, I got angry at Meiya, who wore a white coat in an orthodox maid outfit. Therefore, because of my guilt, I left myself at her mercy.

Every time she made me eat cake, drink tea, or flirt, she had an ecstatic expression. To be honest, it’s a little scary.

I let her serve me until she was satisfied, and then again, I began explaining about the gun we were going to make beside the Combat shotgun “SAIGA12K”.

When I dueled Lucca last time, I ran out of AK47 magazines and GB15 40mm add-on grenades. All that I had left was the revolver, which is a sub-arm.

Snows and I used it to get the enemy’s attention while my friends rushed in, but I didn’t mind the 6 bullets.

Based on that experience, I would like to develop a new sub-arm, the “Automatic Pistol”. In the first place, the sub-arm is a handgun, and what exactly is that?

The handgun is a gun that is highly portable and can be used with one or both hands. It can be roughly divided into two types according to its operating method.

The revolver I’m currently using. And the automatic pistol that automatically loads the next bullet after firing the first.

So, how was the auto pistol developed?

The development of the automatic pistol was initiated by the Maxim machinegun invented by Hiram Maxim in 1884.

Maxim used the recoil generated during firing to create the Maxim gun with a “toggle action” that fires bullets one after another by bending and stretching the toggle link (looper-like movement). It was Hugo Borchard, a German, who adopted this principle in his pistol in 1894 and made the first automatic pistol called “Borchard C93”.

After that, Georg Luger, also a German, improved the shortcomings of the gun developed by Borchardt (it was too large to be used as a pistol) and made it practical and smart, the “Luger P08” in 1908.

Let’s get back to the story.

Since the development of the pistol-sized automatic pistol, many famous guns have been born.

This time, I’m thinking of making one of the “H & K USP (9mm model)”. USP is an abbreviation for “Universal Self-loading Pistol”.

The USP is a gun made by adopting the most basic thing in the internal mechanism while using the reinforced plastic of the state-of-the-art technology at that time for the gun body.

Thanks to that, it was exceptionally reliable and accepted by the military and special police.

There are multiple USP calibers, but this time we will make a 9×19-9mm Parabellum bullet model. It is a “USP tactical pistol” with a sound suppressor.

The USP tactical pistol (9 mm model) has a longer barrel tip than usual because a sound suppressor can be attached. This is to reduce the screw on the barrel’s outer circumference of the tip muzzle part. On this threaded part, the screw of the sound suppressor can be installed. If the sound suppressor is removed, there is a protector to cover the threaded part.

If I can create the USP tactical pistol (9mm model), A sound suppressor can be installed and used indoors. It is very encouraging in case of emergency.

If we can make this one, it will be a reliable sub-arm.

After hearing the explanation, Meiya urged me the follow-up.

“Then what else will you make?”

“After making the combat shotgun and the automatic pistol, the next step is to make “KTW bullets”.”

It is a kind of armor-piercing bullet for handguns called “Cop Killer”.

“KTW” in “KTW bullets” is not an abbreviation for anything, but an abbreviation of the three developers’ names.

Paul J. Kopsch’s K.

Dan Turcus T.

Don Ward’s W.

Together, it’s a KTW bullet.

This bullet was originally developed for “Law enforcement agencies such as the police.” It was developed based on the concept of a general handgun that wanted to have high penetration performance.

Ordinary bullets wrap the bullet core with a metal armor jacket, such as copper. The KTW bullet succeeded in increasing penetration by making the bullet core of a hard material like brass and processed Teflon for the jacket.

However, in time it was used to neutralize the bulletproof vest worn by police officers.

Originally, it was not an ammunition cartridge for general distribution in the private market. This is because it was developed only for “law enforcement agencies such as the police”.

The media said, “Even a police officer wearing a bulletproof vest could be hit. KTW bullets are Cop’s killer”, so, they became officially regulated by federal law except for public institutions such as the military and police.

Occasionally, it appears as a “Teflon-processed special bullet” in movies.

In the duel with Lucca, the revolver’s bullet was blocked by her hand.

At that time, if there was an armor-piercing shell such as a KTW bullet and an automatic pistol, it might have been possible to pierce the gap between the fingers and tear the opponent’s cheeks to shed blood.

Also, in the future, there may be opponents like magic armors. At that time, if these two are prepared, it will be a reliable weapon. That is why I decided to make it this time.

Meiya was convinced after hearing the whole story.

“I see, it’s certainly worth preparing these two in terms of insurance.”

“Isn’t it? The order to make it is: first the combat shotgun, then the Automatic pistol, and last the KTW bullet. Of course, if weapons and armors are needed on the way, I will make that in priority, but basically I think that I will make it in this order”

“I understand! Then, this Meiya Dragoon, will help with all my strength!”

Meiya was proud of her appearance as an orthodox maid.

At first, she was depressed because I scolded her, but apparently, she got back on track.

She was desperately comforted and rewarded for her service.

I started making weapons with Meiya so that she wouldn’t be in a bad mood.
