In the following days, Joja had been accompanying Nis to adapt to the new gun. Of course, he also practiced shooting himself.
The SVD was so easy to use, with a shooting range of 850 meters, it was definitely enough for small-scale low-intensity battles.
Because of the shooting range, Joja tasted the sweetness a few times. In several battles, he pressed the enemy and shot without any danger, which made him even more enthusiastic about the SVD!
Joja chose a shooting training ground near the airport, a small hill, and set up targets from near to far on the vast grassland below the hill.
There were pistol targets at 10-25 meters, followed by rifle targets at 50-400 meters. After every 100 meters, there would be a group of targets, extending all the way to 1800 meters.
All the targets were fixed on iron frames on the ground, with a 2 cm thick steel plate the size of a human body hanging on them.
Once a shot hit the target, it would make a crisp sound of "clang," bringing joy to the shooter.
Until the seventh day of training for Joja and Nis, Kaman couldn't help but join in.
The old guy's shooting instinct had already been integrated into his bones, but he had always used old guns like AK47 and AKM in the past. What he needed to train was his pistol shooting ability, so that he wouldn't have to solve problems with a knife every time he touched an enemy from behind.
Because of the different shooting ranges, the three of them did not interfere with each other.
In less than two days, their performance gradually improved, and the situation here began to attract the attention of people in the company.
Sailimu and Ayou came to play for two days, but ended up hurting their self-esteem. In the end, Sailimu's two nephews, Zhabu and Nas, chose to stay.
These two guys originally just wanted to learn from Joja and Nis by shooting their bullets, but soon they lost confidence in their shooting skills compared to Joja and Nis.
Then the two African guys, Zhabu and Nas, stayed there for a wage of 1 yuan per hour, holding binoculars and acting as Joja and Nis's target spotters.
The humanoid steel targets were divided into three areas: the head was worth three points, the torso was worth two points, and the limbs were worth one point.
As people who made a living by guns, they couldn't help but have a bit of a competitive mindset, so...
"Ready, begin!"
With a shout from Nas, who was missing half of his palm, Joja, Nis, and Kaman in front of the targets instantly drew their pistols...
"Bang bang bang bang..."
With a series of gunshots, the bottles about 15 meters in front of the three of them instantly exploded.
At this moment, the differences between the three of them became apparent. Kaman used a Glock 17, and the others had only one word for it: "fast"!
He fired 17 rounds in one breath, and as long as there was a bit of strength in his hands, the muzzle didn't jump around. He even shattered five bottles.
Nis was completely different. This girl pursued stability, shooting one bullet at a time with both hands. Five bullets, five targets. The speed was slower, but the hit rate increased.
As for Joja, he was too fierce in comparison. He was fast and accurate.
At the moment the competition began, he drew his gun and shot in one breath, firing five bullets in less than two seconds, all hitting the target. The feeling of being able to shoot without even aiming made Zhabu and Nas, who were watching, cheer enthusiastically.
However, their competition was a bit different. They were not competing for accuracy or speed, but whether each person could finish shooting the designated targets with one magazine of bullets. Wasting bullets was not a problem, but missing the targets meant elimination.
This 15-meter target was too simple for Joja. He used to shoot moving targets at 25 meters. These fixed targets posed no challenge to him.
The only thing that gave Joja a bit of pleasure was that he set a goal for himself to only hit the bottle mouth. So Kaman and Nis's targets were shattered, but Joja's target had the bottle mouth exploded while the bottle body remained intact.
Anyone could see Joja's pistol shooting ability had reached the top level, but actual combat was different from the competitive shooting Joja pursued.
In fact, Kaman's style was the essence of actual combat. When encountering enemies, releasing all of one's firepower and taking the initiative to kill the opponent was the most important.
Being a bit more accurate was of course better, but whether to shoot the head or elsewhere, including how many bullets to use, was not a problem.
You could only care about these things if you were alive, after all, bullets were only worth a few cents.
In comparison, Nis's pistol shooting seemed a bit rigid. She was a sniper who graduated from a regular military academy, and she was very standard when using a pistol.
With her pistol marksmanship, she was more than capable of being a police officer, but she was not very impressive on the battlefield.
However, as a sniper, if she really got close enough to be touched by someone, the P90 would definitely be more effective than a pistol.
After the first round, they entered the second round of shooting at the 25-meter target.
This time, the targets were still glass bottles, but everyone's choices began to differ.
Joja still chose to shoot with a pistol, while Kaman chose the AK74, and Nis chose the P90.
Joja still shot quickly, five shots, five hits.
Kaman was interesting. The old guy held the AK74 at his waist and pulled the trigger without even aiming. Two bursts of three shots each shattered the five bottles.
He was even faster than Joja, and the power of the rifle was even stronger!

Nis used the P90 in a standard manner, shooting five bullets and shattering the five targets. Although she was stable and accurate, she was still at the bottom in terms of effectiveness.
The shooting distance continued to extend: 50 meters, 100 meters, 200 meters, 300 meters, 400 meters... 800 meters... 1000 meters... 1500 meters.
Joja was most confident in shooting within 400 meters, but when it came to real competition, he realized that Kaman had absolute dominance within 100 meters with the AK74, and at around 200 meters, he could compete evenly with Joja.Only when the distance stretched to 300 meters would Kaman, who generally disliked using sights, resort to rapid firing to hit the target. And his hit rate was extremely high. It wasn't until the distance reached 400 meters that he would miss. A magazine with 30 bullets could only hit two or three targets, and that was because they were shooting from a high vantage point. If it were on flat ground, they wouldn't be able to see the target at a distance of 400 meters on the grassland.
Joja, of course, excelled in both speed and accuracy. But it was only after truly competing with Kaman, this old-timer, that he realized how formidable he was. No, not just 'formidable', but incredibly formidable.
For distances between 100 and 200 meters, he would just shoot without aiming.
The posture of tucking the gunstock under the ribs had an indescribable rustic feel, but Joja realized that this posture was convenient for running and shooting.
This was real guerrilla warfare. If they were on the grassland, within a radius of 100 meters, Joja felt that he would most likely not be a match for Kaman.
Kaman didn't pursue precision at all. What he sought was to quickly incapacitate the enemy.
At such a close distance, in Africa where bulletproof vests were scarce, as long as you 'hit the target', it could be lethal. There was no need to hold oneself to competitive standards like Joja did.
This was the true combat style, practicality built upon years of warfare and the cost of human lives.
Compared to Kaman's dominance within the 100 to 200 meter range, and Joja's miraculous skills within the 200 to 400 meter range, Nis fell a bit short.
The P90 that this girl used could only hold up to 200 meters. When entering the 300 meter range, she had to switch to the G29 sniper rifle, otherwise, she couldn't keep up with the pace.
However, when the distance increased, the situation began to change dramatically!!!
