Gone Tomorrow
“JUST muted city sounds from the window, and the hiss of air from a vent above the bathroom. Springfield moved away from his position by the TV cabinet and sat down on the bed.I said, ‘Name recognition.’Sansom said, ‘It’s a bitch.’‘You got that right.’‘Tell me about it.’‘But it’s a big file,’ I said.‘So?’‘So it’s a long report. And we’ve all read army reports.’‘And?’‘They’re very dry.’ Which they were. Take Springfield’s Steyr GB, for instance. The army had tested it. It was a miracle of modern ...engineering. Not only did it work exactly like it should, it also worked exactly like it shouldn’t. It had a complex gas-delayed blowback system that meant it could be loaded with substandard or elderly or badly assembled rounds and still fire. Most guns have problems with variable gas pressures. Either they blow up with too much or fail to cycle with too little. But the Steyr could handle anything. Which was why Special Forces loved it. They were often far from home with no logistics, forced to rely on whatever they could scrounge up locally.MoreLess
