First I never have in my hands original one, I have only repro from bajonets and battledress with original demiled bomb. It was time when I was haghly interested about this gun.
I know this shot from movie. I am not sure if the piat will be so efective again Panther tank. From this angel is heavy armor.
Wht I am remember from Arnhem memories, what I have readed. the soldier has used a few bombs again Pz IV, this tank was litle bit demaged and come back wit own power to the gemany line.
look they are using bomb without pyro composition what was used for bomb fly
For the first shot you have pull the spring by legs in laying or stand. If I am rememberign corect it is equivalent 90 kg for pulling the spring. The bomb fly with spring and pyro power. After what the bomb was fired knocked the firing pin, slide back and pull the spring for next shot.
absolutely wrong, from somebody who knows only bazooka :-D
better
