The Panzerbüchse 39 (PzB 39) (German: "tank hunting rifle model 39") is a German anti-tank rifle used during World War II that is an improvement of the earlier PzB 38. It is a single-shot, manually loaded weapon that uses a falling-block action. To increase the rate of fire, a box containing spare cartridges could be mounted on the rifle's side. This is not a feeding device, but instead simply put spare ammunition within easy reach of the operator. Its cartridge is the propriety 7.92x94mm round, based on the common 7.92x57mm Mauser round, but with a much longer 94mm casing. It was first produced in 1939 and saw action during the Invasion of Poland and the opening phases of the war against the Soviet Union. The rifle was phased out by 1944; by that time, developments in tank armor systems rendered most anti-tank rifles ineffective against all but the lightest armored vehicles.
