Hello to all! This is my first post here. I am also tootall on CGN (Yes, I did capitalize my name this time). Great looking site.
Anyways...
I took a number of photos of my Soviet PTRD anti tank rifle recently.
They can be seen at www gmail.com

If the mods want to put up a page for various ATR, feel free to use my photos.
Cheers! :beerchug:
Thanks TooTall .... :thup:
Actually, a good friend of mine owns a PTRD and on one of our annual training weeks at Milcun, he brought it out to shoot live. I have some great video of him firing it at 100, 400 and 600 meters.
Between work and this place, I'm up to my eyeballs at the moment, but I'll try to extract the sequences from the broader footage and put it up in the Russian MKL for play and download.
Regards,

Here is some footage as well ...

I'd say it chrony's at.... SEXY! :thup:Quote:

Bullet dia: 14.50 mm
Bullet weight: 63.44 g
Muzzle velocity: 976 m/s
Muzzle energy: 30215 J
And for the metric challenged, what is that in grains and ft/sec?;)
976m/s = 3202 ft/s
63.44g = 979 to 980 grains
I was testing out 1300gr and 1000gr & 750gr projos :D
At 2800fps, 3000fps and 3500fps :madsmile:
is original specs :dancingbanana:Quote:
