[TFA] FK Wz. 35

The Wz.35 anti-tank rifle was developed in Poland in mid-1930s, and kept under strict secrecy, which resulted in limited use of this weapon during the German attack on the Poland in 1939, despite the fact that this weapon was effective enough to deal with German tanks of the period. This rifle was built around proprietary, rifle-caliber round (metric designation 7.92x107), which had very long and slender case, and was loaded with conventional, lead-cored jacketed bullet (12.8 gram, 1220 m/s). Due to the very high muzzle velocities, the barrel life of the rifle was relatively short (barrels normally had to be replaced every 300 rounds or so). Total production of the wz.35 anti-tank rifles is estimated at about 6500 guns, which were delivered to Polish army before the German occupation. The Wz.35 anti-tank rifle is a manually operated, bolt action rifle. It uses Mauser-type rotary bolt with frontal locking lugs. Feed is from detachable box magazine which holds 4 rounds. The rifle is equipped with traditional wooden stock and folding bipod. The long barrel is fitted with effective muzzle brake. Usually, this rifle uses fixed type iron sights, set for 300 meters range. However, a special version with a telescopic scope is also available, which increases the accurate range of the gun.
