But much more interesting was the safety device, which was a ring on the back of the bolt. First of all, it is a fairly effective muzzle brake-recoil compensator.

The final weapon had some interesting details.

35 Ur successfully passed the tests, and in 1938, it began to be supplied to the troops. In general, the survivability of the barrel of weapons was the main problem in the development, and the maximum that was achieved was just 300 shots, although for an MFR this is a low but acceptable result. To achieve such a bullet speed, an 10,2 gram of gunpowder was required, which created quite a lot of pressure in the bore and reduced its survivability. Despite the relatively small caliber for such ammunition, the weight of the bullet itself was 14,5 grams, which accelerated along the bore to the speed of 1275 meters per second. Since the big shooter needed a big cartridge, along with the weapon was developed ammunition, which had the metric designation 7,92х107. All this would be so if not for a few details and the size of the weapon. The 35 Ur doesn’t stand out by anything remarkable and is a regular rifle with a manual reload, with a magazine for three rounds and a sliding bolt locking the barrel bore when turning. A noteworthy point was that at the end of the name they decided to leave a mention, albeit abbreviated, of Uruguay, which, in theory, should have knocked down the likely enemy, since it was impossible to say with certainty for whom the weapon.īy and large, wz. This was the beginning of the creation of the sample wz. Understanding that even if successful, a lot of money cannot be obtained from this, and “such a cow is needed most” the project has changed its goal.

As such, there was no order and the weapon was developed entirely on its own initiative with the expectation that the sample would interest the needy customer.

The solution to this problem was the development of an APP for Uruguay, which was dealt with by Josef Marozhek. In connection with the adoption of the armament of the BT and T-26 tanks, a program of arming the anti-tank guns to the Polish army was urgently developed, there was only one problem - there were no anti-tank guns themselves. Interest in the PTR was quite large, interested in these weapons and Poland, which at that time considered its likely opponent of the USSR. The first massively produced anti-gun was Mauser Tankgewehr, this alone was not the only sample of such weapons at that time.
