Inert Original Panzerfaust 100
Inert Original Panzerfaust 100
Step back into history with this rare and authentic WWII German Panzerfaust 100, a remarkable piece of military history from the final stages of the Second World War. The Panzerfaust 100, introduced in late 1944, was a single-use, recoilless anti-tank weapon designed by Nazi Germany to counter the increasing presence of Allied armor on the battlefield. This particular example is fully inert and safe for display, making it a perfect centerpiece for any serious military antiques collection.
Historical Significance:
The Panzerfaust (literally "tank fist") was a revolutionary weapon for its time, providing German infantry with a lightweight, disposable anti-tank capability. The "100" designation refers to its effective range of approximately 100 meters, an improvement over earlier models like the Panzerfaust 30 and 60. Capable of penetrating up to 200mm of armor, the Panzerfaust 100 was a formidable weapon in the hands of German troops during the desperate defensive battles of 1944–1945, including the Battle of Berlin. Its simple design allowed for mass production and widespread use, even by minimally trained soldiers, making it one of the most iconic anti-tank weapons of WWII.
Condition and Features:
This Panzerfaust 100 is in its original, unrestored condition, showcasing the patina and wear consistent with its age and wartime use. The body exhibits a weathered finish with visible rust and discoloration, adding to its authenticity and historical character. Some faded red markings are still visible on the tube, likely remnants of original German stenciling. The warhead, trigger mechanism, and folding sight are intact, though the weapon has been professionally deactivated and rendered inert, ensuring it is safe for display and handling. There are no live components, making this item legal for ownership in most jurisdictions (buyer is responsible for verifying local regulations).
Dimensions and Weight:
- Length: Approximately 41 inches (104 cm)
- Weight: Approximately 13 lbs (5.9 kg)
Why This Piece Stands Out:
The Panzerfaust 100 is rarer than its earlier counterparts due to its late-war production and the chaotic conditions under which it was deployed. Surviving examples in original condition are highly sought after by collectors of WWII militaria. This piece offers a tangible connection to the final months of the war in Europe, a period of intense conflict and innovation in military technology.
