03:57This is the boys anti-tank rifle
04:00which is the weapon used by the infantry soldier
04:03to combat enemy tanks
04:06and armoured fighting vehicles
04:08It is a very accurate single shot weapon
04:11with a simple bolt action
04:13similar to that of the service rifle
04:20The caliber is 55
04:22or just over one half inch
04:25At ranges of 300 yards
04:27and under
04:28the bullet will penetrate
04:30all parts of enemy light tanks
04:32even the front
04:34which has been recently armoured up
04:36Its maximum useful range
04:39is 300 yards
04:41but is better fired
04:43at 100 yards
04:44Whenever possible
04:46fire should be directed
04:48against that part of the vehicle
04:49where the crew is usually placed
04:52This shows the customary arrangement
04:55of the crew within a tank
04:58When piercing armour plate
05:00the destructive power of the bullet
05:02is greatly increased
05:03by the interior shrapnel effect
05:05of the armour shattering
05:08These pieces of steel
05:10will inflict casualties on the crew
05:13For maximum penetration
05:15the angle of impact
05:17should not exceed 20 degrees
05:22At angles of impact
05:23much greater than 20 degrees
05:25the penetration power is reduced
05:27and the bullet may even ricochet off
05:30without inflicting any damage
05:36The anti-tank rifle fire
05:38gives good results
05:39against medium and heavy tanks
05:41when the bullet hits
05:42in the seams or joints
05:44such as the gun methods
05:47or junction points
05:48of the turret and hull
05:51These hits cause
05:52burying over of working surfaces
05:54and produce jamming
05:58Equally effective
05:59is a hit on the tank treads
06:01These hits will disable
06:03or delay medium or heavy tanks
06:05They can then be destroyed
06:07by anti-tank guns
06:08or field artillery
06:17Here we see the near side view
06:19of the anti-tank rifle
06:20The weight of the rifle
06:22is 36 pounds
06:23The magazine
06:25containing 5 rounds of ammunition
06:26weighs 2 pounds
06:287 ounces
06:31Normally it is carried
06:32in a vehicle
06:32Although it can be carried
06:34for short distances
06:35by a man
06:49I said a man
07:06Here is the recoil reducer
07:08And this is the foresight
07:10A knife blade aperture type
07:14This is the barrel
07:15of 55 caliber
07:16And this is the adjustable back sight
07:19which is calibrated
07:20for two ranges
07:21300 yards
07:23and 500 yards
07:25The practice of firing
07:26at 500 yards
07:28is now obsolete
07:29and will no longer be used
07:30To inflict maximum damage
07:33and obtain a more critical
07:34point of aim
07:35300 yards sighting
07:37only will be used in combat
07:39The range is set
07:40for 300 yards
07:41by turning the lever
07:42to the left
07:45Here is the safety catch
07:46which as in the service rifle
07:48is off when pushed forward
07:50and on when turned back
07:53Forward
07:53ready to fire
07:54Back
07:56on safety
07:57Always keep the catch
07:59back on safety
08:00except when firing
08:03Here is the pistol grip
08:05trigger
08:05and trigger guard
08:08This is the cheat crest
08:09and here is the shoulder piece grip
08:12This is the shoulder piece
08:14which is padded
08:14with flexible rubber
08:15In the shoulder piece
08:17is an oil well
08:18and brush
08:19for oiling purposes
08:25Offside view of the rifle
08:27This is the adjustable front support
08:30The rifle may be raised
08:32or lowered
08:32by turning this sleeve
08:40Bolt mechanism
08:42The bolt is similar
08:44to that of your service rifle
08:45and is worked
08:46in the same manner
08:51To remove the bolt
08:53push the safety catch forward
08:56raise the bolt lever
08:57and pull the bolt back
09:00This is the ejector stop
09:04Press the ejector stop down
09:06and take out the bolt
09:09The top lip is the ejector
09:12The one underneath
09:13is the extractor
09:17These are the locking lugs
09:23The small hole in front of the bolt
09:25is the striker way
09:26and this is the striker
09:31This is the cocking piece
09:33to which the striker
09:34is attached
09:37To replace the bolt
09:38the locking lugs
09:39must be covered
09:40by the ejector
09:41and extractor
09:42The cocking piece base
09:44in line with the extractor
09:46Push the bolt forward
09:48in the body of the rifle
09:49Turn bolt lever down
09:51Press the trigger
09:52and apply the safety catch
09:59Loading and firing
10:00This is the magazine
10:02which holds five rounds
10:04of armor-piercing ammunition
10:05The magazine is loaded
10:07by holding it firmly
10:09and pressing down
10:10on the platform
10:11while inserting the cartridges
10:13base first
10:14The magazine spring
10:16is depressed
10:17as the cartridges
10:18fill the magazine
10:25Here we see the operations
10:27of firing
10:38With the magic of x-ray animation
10:40let us see what takes place
10:43inside the rifle
10:44when operated
10:45When the bolt lever is raised
10:47the cocking piece
10:48and striker is cocked
10:50compressing the striker spring
10:52As the bolt is pulled back
10:54the magazine spring
10:56forces a cartridge down
10:58The bolt going forward
10:59pushes the cartridge
11:01into the breech
11:02As the bolt lever turns down
11:05the bolt locking lugs
11:07go into slots
11:08in the rifle body
11:09thus locking the bolt
11:10firmly in position
11:11The cocking piece
11:13is held in check
11:14by contact with the sear
11:15When the trigger is squeezed
11:18it oppresses the sear
11:19releasing the cocking piece
11:21and striker
11:22The striker explodes
11:24the powder charge
11:25As the bolt is withdrawn
11:27the extractor
11:28pulls the empty cartridge case
11:30from the breech
11:30As the ejector
11:32comes in contact
11:33with the ejector stop
11:34it ejects
11:36the empty cartridge
11:37from the rifle
11:38The magazine spring
11:40forces another cartridge
11:41into place
11:42The bolt going forward
11:44pushes the cartridge
11:45into the breech
11:46Turning the bolt lever down
11:48locks the bolt
11:50and the rifle
11:51is again ready to fire
12:04Recoil reduction
12:05Most of the recoil
12:07of the anti-tank rifle
12:08is taken up
12:09by the recoil reducer
12:10on the muzzle
12:11a heavy buffer spring
12:13inside this cylinder
12:15and the flexible rubber
12:17shoulder piece
12:19Here we see
12:20a sectional view
12:21of the rifle muzzle
12:22and recoil reducer
12:23As the bullet
12:25leaves the muzzle
12:25it is followed
12:26by high speed
12:27gases
12:27a portion of which
12:29are deflected back
12:30by the curved surface
12:31of the recoil reducer
12:33These expanding gases
12:35exert a forward pressure
12:36on the deflector
12:37and thus counteract
12:39a good portion
12:39of the recoil
12:41Without this device
12:42the back pressure
12:43of the gases
12:44are unrestrained
12:45and the recoil
12:46is much greater
12:50Here again
12:51we see the recoil reducer
12:52in action
12:58A strong buffer spring
12:59inside this cylinder
13:00absorbs further recoil
13:02as the barrel
13:03slides backward
13:04when the rifle is fired
13:08Finally
13:09the flexible rubber
13:10padding of the shoulder
13:11piece protects
13:12the shoulder from shock
13:18Aiming
13:20In taking aim
13:21the back sight
13:22is adjusted
13:22to the required range
13:24The tip of the foresight
13:26is brought into
13:27the center
13:27of the back sight
13:30Target approaching
13:32When the vehicle
13:33approaches head on
13:34aim directly
13:35at the most vulnerable spots
13:37Do not fire
13:39until the target
13:40is in range
13:44Target approaching
13:45diagonally
13:46When aiming and firing
13:48at a vehicle
13:48moving diagonally
13:50across the field of fire
13:51aim should be taken
13:52at the front edge
13:53of the tank
13:56It is very important
13:58to maintain
13:59the swing of the rifle
14:00while squeezing
14:01the trigger
14:04Target moving
14:05directly across
14:06the field of vision
14:07When aiming and firing
14:09at a vehicle
14:10moving directly
14:11across the field of fire
14:12it is necessary
14:14to keep a lead
14:15equal to the length
14:16of the vehicle
14:16in front of the part
14:18to be hit
14:22This lead must
14:23be maintained
14:24while pressing
14:25the trigger
14:26If this lead
14:27is not maintained
14:28or the aim
14:29taken directly
14:30on the target
14:31the shot
14:32will be behind
14:32the target
14:33and will probably
14:34hit something
14:34that was not intended
14:42Why don't you
14:43shoot
14:44while you're looking?
14:48Training practice
14:50with dummy ammunition
14:51Dummy ammunition
14:53is always used
14:54in training
14:54for safety
14:55This ammunition
14:56may be easily
14:57identified
