Revision as of 01:31, 11 December 2014
From what I gather, the versions with "blast shield removed" might actually be a different model. The real name of this weapon is Raketenpanzerbüchse (RPzB) and the first model, RPzB 43, had no shield; apparently this meant that the user had to wear a gas mask to protect them from getting a faceful of rocket exhaust. The shield was added on the later RPzB 54 model (which also had improved iron sights), and there was also the RPzB 54/1 which used an improved rocket, not that there would be any useful way to tell that externally.
