PTRD

Hi there !

Today I'm going to tell you about an anti-tank rifle. Yup , you hear or rather read well. It was made by russians, ok? It worked , but idea is pretty crazy. Here's a photo:
History:
After soviet army made some new canons , tey wanted to support them with light anti-tank rifles. And then Boom , you've got PTRD and PTRS. There are only few differences , you can see them on the photo below. It was heavy and very long. Too long for one soldier , so crew counted 2 of them. Suprised? 
Technical thingies:
Serial production : 1941-45
Caliber : 14.5x114mm
Lenght : 2000mm
Weight: 16 kg
Bullet speed : 1020m/s

So , that's all for this post , I hope you like it !

See ya!
