The "Bayi Horse Rifle" was the standard rifle with the largest output and the widest distribution area of the Eighth Route Army at that time.
The Bayi horse rifle is a manual rifle that was developed in 1939 by Liu Guifu, a technician from the Military Industry Department of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters. The gun is characterized by its small size, accurate shooting and beautiful appearance. The aiming star on the barrel is known as "the first crosshair in the world". The most prominent was the three-edged bayonet on the gun, which could be automatically deployed and fixed.
