Granatbuchse GrB-39 Antitank Rifle shot a heatanti tank grenade IRL it could pen a t-34 easily it wasen't bull*hit .Also PzB was almsot the same a captured PTRS if not better Btw you are obviously a prosfessional cod player so im gonna leave this conversation

Khm, my dear friend. The Germans canceled production GrB immediately after came the first faustpatron becouse faustpatron was better and cheaper then this bull*hit.
And PzB-38 compared with PTRD bull*hit too. PzB can penetrate 30mm armor only on 100 meters, then PTRD can penetrate 40 on 100 meters and 35 on 300.
And about PTRS. It the same sh*t as PTRD but with 5 round magazine. Can you imagen in game PTRD with 5 round magazine? You think PTRD is OP? Ha!

And, even if GrB has been added to the game, this be a so suc*er weapon. Ballistics and the initial rate is worse than the Panzerfaust. What is needed if the bazooka \ panzershrek already be in game?

Just to have more variety I mean the germans and americans don't have an anti tank rifle if you give the soveits a tier 2 then without giving the germans or americans something they are going to be very sad

Well, i think PTRD for all faction will be better.

the PzB 39 and Polish Model 35 AT rifles are what made the russians have to make a PTRD. If it wasn't for the Polish AT rifle or German counterpart (which pens *more armor*) they'd have no PTRD. I did a thread with information on all 3 weapons. but, here's a rundown of what they did.

The PzB 38 only had about 1700 made total. only about 60 were available at the start of the invasion of Poland. The rest were scrapped due to the difficulty of use.

They revamped it to the PzB 39, bit lighter, slightly shorter, a little louder but overall same power. could pen up to 30mm of armor at 200 meters or less, and still pen more than 15 by the 450 mark. Granted it was so inaccurate at 450 meters that they were used to take down light recon vehicles and jeeps, tank drive-wheels and generators. Things that were stationary basically. 39,000 were made. A little more than 25,000 were used throughout the war on all fronts for Germany...

The GrB (granatebuchse) 39 was the remake of the PzB 39 when the T-34 started coming out more readily by the Russians. And yes, it fired standard rifle-grenade ammunition. Anti-personell, HEAT and tear-gas/chemical grenades. It was a VERY potent anti-personell weapon, but not so much AT. Yes it did work, but it took several very good placed HEAT grenades to do it. And since it was a basket-loaded grenade launcher the launch method was gas propellant from a blank round, which were wood-core bullets that "punted" the grenade out of the basket while triggering the primer in the grenade... was quite interesting actually. the extra PzB 39's that weren't in use on the front lines had their barrels cut in half (or just about) and the grenade baskets placed upon the front of the barrel either welded or slid into place through heat tempering (making it super hot to expand, and then extremely cold to tighten the metal around the barrel snuggly.)
