NotesThe Wz.35 was a Polish designed bolt-actioned anti-tank rifle which had a four round magazine. The Polish army wanted a light weapon to give infantry and cavalry units some form of defense against armour and this had to be light enough to be carried by troops of foot. It fired a longer version of the 7.92mm round which was unique in that it had a lead core which was encased in a steel jacket. It was effective short range and was issued at company and squadron level.
