About this mod Author’s original text

Pansarvärnsgevär M/42 Recoiless Rifle

The prequel to the best anti-tank weapon of all time, the Carl Gustav, but before that, there was another anti-tank weapon. The Pansarvärnsgevär M/42 is an anti-tank recoiless rifle produced in 1942 that was a little too late and made too little difference in the conflict, but the design and its tech was the major influence to the later anti-tank technologies post war.

The recoiless rifle features very similar handling to the venerable Carl Gustav, with the latch that opens up to shove in the anti-tank rounds. Safety and trigger are within the firing hand, as well as flippable iron sights. Also included is the Meopta ZF-4, a 4x scope that can be mounted at the front of the weapon for magnification. And to carry these rounds is a 5 round carry case.

Manual of arms requires a two man teams but you're on your own, buddy. To operate, open latch, load rounds in, turn safety off, fire away. To eject the rounds, make sure you rotate it enough to initiate the ejector to kick out the empty shell!

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin

  1. The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
  2. Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
  3. Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
  4. Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.

Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file.

Install these first, or the mod will not work:
