Restored Pak 40 Anti Tank Gun Firing

An amazing video of a restored German Pak 40 anti tank gun, the Pak 40 served as the Wehrmachts primary anti tank gun from 1942 until the end of the war. It had the capability of knocking out most Allied armor at ranges of over a mile, it was rushed into production once the Russian T-34 and KV-1's started to appear early on in Barbarossa and the Wehrmacht realized it needed better weapons to deal with them. The Pak 40 fires a 75mm shell, it could also be used in a indirect fire mode like a true artillery piece, although I am sure this was rare. So with that out of the way enjoy this beautiful piece of history!
