Chapter 99

The three people laughed and chatted as they headed back to Tom's gun shop.

"Andy, is the problem resolved?" Tom asked enthusiastically.

"Well, not really. In the end, it all comes down to the quality of the beef. But the situation doesn't look good," Liu Yunxuan shook his head and said.

"But I think your cattle won't have any issues. Everyone knows that your pasture is the best," Tom said with a smile.

"Let's not think about those troublesome things. Tom, do you have any good recommendations?" Liu Yunxuan didn't want to keep chatting; it was almost noon, and he needed to buy a gun and get back for lunch.

"Oh, Andy, you really have good luck. A rare new treasure just arrived yesterday, but it's a bit expensive," Tom said excitedly.

Tom then led them to the back, not wanting to display this new treasure where it might cause trouble.

Tom took out a long gun case and opened it excitedly, "Take a look. It's a fully accessorized basic model with a computer fire control system. I really love it."

"Tom, can this be sold?" Liu Yunxuan asked in surprise.

Inside the gun case was a long gun with a camouflage finish. The scope and some accessories were embedded around the gun. If he wasn't mistaken, he had seen this sniper rifle in the American blockbuster "Shooter" a few years ago.

The reason it left such a deep impression was that Mark Wahlberg first used this gun to hit a soda can from a mile away. Then the villains used a computer to remotely control this model of sniper rifle to assassinate the archbishop and frame him.

At the time, he had even looked up the weapons featured in the movie out of curiosity.

He never expected to see such a long-range weapon in Tom's gun shop.

"Andy, I'm not lying. This is a treasure that many people dream of. I had to go through a lot of connections to get one," Tom said.

"No problem, how much? I'll buy it," Liu Yunxuan answered without hesitation. This opportunity might not come again.

Moreover, since he bought his last gun, he had discovered a great interest in firearms. He had never had the chance before, but now that he was in America, this interest was unstoppable.

"The price is a bit high, and even if you buy it, it's best to use it at the shooting range. Don't take it into the city, or it will cause trouble."

"Tom, tell me the price. I can't wait to own it," Liu Yunxuan interrupted Tom's rambling, staring intently at the gun.

"Alright, Andy, the price is $13,000, including 1,000 rounds of .408 caliber ammunition. If you need more, you'll have to buy from the manufacturer," Tom said.

It's really expensive. The Remington M700 he bought only cost a little over $1,000, not even a fraction of this. But he really liked this gun and decided to add it to his collection.

"Xinyue, Xinyu, do you two want to buy anything?" Liu Yunxuan asked after buying the gun he liked.

"I'll just buy a handgun for self-defense," Li Xinyue thought for a moment and said.

"What about you, Xinyu? Don't you want to buy one to play with?" Liu Yunxuan asked again, seeing Li Xinyu hesitating.

"Ah, I want to, but even if I buy it, I can't bring it back to China. I can only play with it when I come to visit you," Li Xinyu said with a bitter face.

Looking at all the guns around, it was hard not to be tempted.

"Buy a rifle. We can use my gun license to buy it first. When you come over, you can take it to play, and the rest of the time, it will be part of my collection," Liu Yunxuan said nonchalantly.

Li Xinyu thought about it and agreed. At least he could play with it here. The thought of being able to play with a sniper rifle made Li Xinyu feel excited.

"Mr. Tom, do you have any Barrett guns?" Li Xinyu turned and asked.

"Of course, young man. The civilian version of the M95 is very popular," Tom said, leading the three to a shelf.

The shelf was filled with Barrett sniper rifles.

The famous Barrett sniper rifle was well-known, a family of firearms tested in war.

Li Xinyu eagerly picked up the Barrett M95 recommended by the boss. The black gun body gave a cold and stern feeling. The tactical rail could be fitted with various accessories. The gun was heavy, and it was difficult for an ordinary person to carry it around.

Liu Yunxuan saw the price of $6,500, which was acceptable, half the price of his M200.

For Li Xinyue, it was simple. Tom recommended a Glock 19 handgun. It was small, light, and easy to carry, popular among women. The price was also reasonable at $500.

In just a short while, the three of them spent $20,000 on guns.

"Andy, be careful with the ammunition when you play. It's very expensive," Tom reminded them again. "This specialized ammunition is only produced by the original factory and is very expensive to buy."

Liu Yunxuan tried a few shots and found it really enjoyable. The deep sound, at a distance of 1,000 meters, even as a beginner, he managed to hit the 8 ring under the best shooting conditions.

Liu Yunxuan wanted to try the maximum range of 2,000 meters, but the shooting range wasn't that large.

The only drawback was that it wasn't very convenient for hunting. It was heavy and the bullet's destructive power was low. It was good for self-defense, but not for large game.

Li Xinyu also fired his Barrett M95 continuously.

The two of them were having fun, but Li Xinyue was having a hard time.

The little girl could only look pitifully at the boss, Tom, because she didn't know how to use it. Li Xinyue had never touched a gun before.

Tom was very understanding and saw the girl's difficulty. He walked over to teach Li Xinyue how to use the gun.

The handgun was simple. After listening to Tom's instructions and watching him operate it, Li Xinyue understood. She loaded the magazine and shot at the distant target.

The first two shots were off target. Li Xinyue didn't get discouraged and slowly recalled the aiming method Tom had taught her. Soon, she found her rhythm and her performance was quite good.

Li Xinyue felt that shooting was really exciting. She even thought that if she had this gun when she encountered the robbers in New York, she might have been able to deal with them.

The three of them were now fully engaged. The sounds of gunfire echoed continuously in the shooting range.

In the end, Li Xinyue, who was the least physically fit, stopped first. Looking down, she saw the ground covered with spent shells. She stuck out her tongue, feeling a bit embarrassed. She hadn't realized how many bullets she had fired.

Among the three, Liu Yunxuan fired the least. He was really reluctant to use the 1,000 rounds, as he would have to order more from the factory next time.

The one who had the most fun was Li Xinyu. He fired continuously until his shoulder started to hurt.

The three of them looked at each other and burst into laughter. They had a great time and felt completely relaxed.

"How was it, did you have fun?" Liu Yunxuan asked, looking at Li Xinyue's rosy face.

"Yes, with this, I won't be afraid of bad people anymore," Li Xinyue said, holding the gun with the safety on and posing.

"How about you, Xinyu?" Liu Yunxuan asked Li Xinyu.

"It was fun, but I think my shoulder is about to swell," Li Xinyu said with a bitter face.

"You deserve it for firing non-stop," Li Xinyue said irritably.

"I was just too excited," Li Xinyu said, a bit embarrassed, having been teased by his sister all day.

"Alright, let's clean up and go back. I'm starving," Liu Yunxuan rescued Li Xinyu. But he was indeed hungry.

Shooting was also a physical activity. Focusing on aiming required a lot of mental effort.

When they finished paying and came out, Tom kept reminding Liu Yunxuan to be careful when using it. This wasn't an ordinary M200; it was a version purchased by British and Turkish special forces.

In the car, Liu Yunxuan noticed several missed calls on his phone, all from the ranch. They were probably asking when he would be back for lunch, so he didn't return the calls.

On the way back, Li Xinyu kept looking at his Barrett M95, which had been unloaded. He said he wanted to take many photos to show his friends back home and make them envious.
