The 30mm Panzerfaust first made its appearance in 1943, representing a notable advancement in infantry anti-tank arms. This early model set the foundation for the better-known 60mm Panzerfaust, which became a standard issue for soldiers requiring a compact, single-use launcher capable of piercing armored vehicles. This inert rocket is crafted to match the original specifications closely, featuring spring steel folding fins that snap open upon launch, just as the wartime rounds did, to ensure steady flight. The attached label replicates the authentic markings used during the era. The replica includes a launching tube built to the exact dimensions of the original, allowing for an accurate display. A version without the launching tube is also available for collectors. This piece is intended for display only and contains no explosive material. Cannot ship to Canada.
