Item Description
Original Item: Only One Available. The Panzerfaust 100 gross ("large") or Faustpatrone (Translated literally to mean: Tank Fist Large) was the fourth version of the Panzerfaust. This was the final version produced in quantity, and was completed in September 1944. However, it did not reach full production until November 1944. It had a nominal maximum range of 100 m (330 ft). 190 g (6.7 oz) of propellant launched the warhead at 60 m (200 ft) per second from a 6 cm (2.4 in) diameter tube. The sight had holes for 30, 60, 80 and 150 m (260 and 490 ft), and had luminous paint in them to make counting up to the correct one easier in the dark. This version weighed 6 kg (13 lb) and could penetrate 220 mm (8.7 in) of armor. This model was only produced for a few months before the war ended, so they are quite rare in ANY condition, even more so in this nice collectible state.
This ingenious throw away Rocket and Launcher was one of AH's last ditch weapons adopted by the Germans to try and repel the invading Allies on both the Eastern and Western fronts.
This example has been demilitarized according to specifications by the BATF, and looks to have been repainted with a very “worn” pattern with replicated markings and stencils as well.
Unloaded or dummy grenades, artillery shell casings, and similar devices, which are cut or drilled in an BATF-approved manner so that they cannot be used as ammunition components for destructive devices, are NOT considered NFA weapons.This example is in total compliance and is NOT AVAILABLE FOR EXPORT.
It still has the original warhead and the base with the original wooden tail and some pieces of the original fins remaining. The original markings are gone and the set was repainted in a tannish green color to give it the look of having real battlefield wear.
The original sight still flips up, but the trigger is missing a pin which was replaced with a safety pin. The trigger only pushes down a bit, due to the safety pin. Also please note the "charge retention screw" on the bottom of the launcher, which is about 7 inches closer to the rear than the trigger. If this was a Panzerfaust 60 m, they would be at the same location. Only with the 100 m with the larger charge was this screw 7 inches below the trigger.
This is a very rare example and your chance to own an original Panzerfaust 100 m inert launcher and rocket set! Ready to display!
