Original Item: Only One Available. The Panzerfaust 60 gross ("large") or Faustpatrone (Translated literally to mean: Tank Fist Large) was the third version of the Panzerfaust. This was the most common version, with production starting in September 1944. It had a much more practical range of 60 m (66 yd), although with a muzzle velocity of only 45 m (148 ft) per second it would take 1.3 seconds for the warhead to reach a tank at that range. To achieve the higher velocity, the tube diameter was increased to 5 cm (2.0 in) and 134 g (4.7 oz) of propellant used. It also had an improved flip-up rear sight and trigger mechanism. The weapon now weighed 6.1 kg (13 lb). It could defeat 200 mm (7.9 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. 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.
This ingenious throw away Rocket and Launcher was one of AH's last ditch weapons adopted by the NSDAPs to try and repel the invading Allies on both the Eastern and Western fronts.
This is a great example of a relic excavated 60 Meter Panzerfaust tube with remnants of the integrated leaf sight and trigger, but no projectile. We unfortunately have no information on where this was excavated. The integrated leaf sight is heavily disintegrated but is still standing upright. The trigger is in position but is still missing much of the material. We are able to identify this example as a Panzerfaust 60 due to the location of the screw directly under the trigger, instead of further back is it would be on a Panzerfaust 100.
This is a rare chance to find a Panzerfaust tube that was in the field. Ready for further research and display.
