Developed in 1942, the PIAT (Projector, Infantry, Anti-Tank) was the British answer to the American "Bazooka" line of weapons, essentially a giant spigot mortar, with a rod powered by a very heavy spring plunging into a round to strike a booster charge, which would both launch the round and reset the striker rod for the next shot. Integrated into the body are a set of flip up post front and 3-peep rear sights for direct fire operation, and a spirit level equipped indirect fire sight for both high and low angle fire, with a maximum listed range of 375 yards. Also fitted with a plastic pistol grip, dual canvas slings, lace-on canvas cheek rest and a steel buttplate that doubles as the charging mechanism for the internal spring with lace-on canvas recoil pad.

Fine, with 80% of the tan paint finish, showing some scuffs, dings and areas of oxidization. The "shelf" for positioning the round to be fired shows a number of dents, and is slightly bent inward at the front. The canvas items show mild staining, with heavier stains and wear on the recoil pad. Mechanically untested.
