Wind gun as a means of protection

Structurally, the weapon is arranged very simply - it's just a hollow tube and charges to it. Powered by exhalation from the lungs. It was used by a man from ancient times, and Europe met with him in the era of significant geographical discoveries. In the role of playing equipment, a gun is still used in many countries.

Features of components

The tube of the gun is made of rigid plastic, steel or duralumin. In the abbreviated version, a tube with a diameter of 6-10 mm and a length of 25-35 cm is adopted. This version easily hides in the sleeve, keeps the best shooting distance about 5-10 meters. The long version consists of a tube 70-150 cm in length and 8-15 mm in diameter. This performance can be disguised as a cane or umbrella. The arrows are much longer and heavier. The main condition: the metal tube should be perfectly straight and bend with difficulty.

The battle boom should not be too light, otherwise the penetrating ability of the charge will be small, and the flight will go through instability. The center of gravity of the arrow should be displaced to the needle, for this purpose there is a weighting agent on it. The annular seal allows a small amount of friction to enter the charge into the tube. Heavy long arrows fly not far, but at the same time have a significant penetrating ability.

The European variation equipped an air rifle with a mouthpiece. He gave the opportunity to increase not only the convenience of shooting, but also the power, the range of release of the charge. In the non-European variant, the shot is produced differently: the tube is tightly compressed with the lips, the hole is clogged with a tongue, then the cheeks inflate to the extinction, and the tongue that closes the hole is retracted. Means of survival

In some parts of our planet, there are still tribes living almost primitive way of life. The wind gun for them continues to play the role of a weapon that is capable of silently and secretly hitting the enemy. To overcome death with a miniature arrow is unlikely to succeed, which is why the tip is most often incised and put into the sieve poison. The maximum damaging effect is achieved by incising the tip, so that, breaking off, remained in the wound. Shooting with bullets from a gun occurs in the notes of the Spanish historian Antonio Guerrer (circa 1622), narrating about the peculiarities of the life of the Aztecs. Bullet bullets made of hardened clay were able to kill the animal and the person already at an average distance. Prospects of application

Modern industry has improved the wind gun. It is made using the lightest and at the same time durable materials. The length can reach more than 3 meters, their mouthpieces are made with an admixture of silver nanoparticles, the sights are set optical. Such a model with a set of arrows would be envied by every aborigine. Do not ignore the wind gun and the military. Units of many countries, as a rule, are familiar with this type of weapon. If you can not shoot a powder charge in order not to be detected, an improvised wind gun will come to the rescue, which you can buy at a weapons store. Also, it can be useful for survival in natural conditions, where animals so simply do not allow the hunter to distance his outstretched hand.
