The one Dave will have bought will be inert and deactivated. You can see the warhead is empty.

No one should ever mess with a live one of these, or any other item of ordnance.

Hi Dave, I am sure it would clean up even more with the Oxalic acid treatment. But I could happily live with it as is.

Cheers, Ade.

Very nice piece! Its a PF 60 I would say by the looks of it. I ve got one in my collection too, and the Faustpatrone 30, the smallest of the lot.
I would clean it a bit with oxalic acid, so the the text on the warhead will be more vissible. The only part missing on this one so far I can see is the wooden tail with the wings, but I have some relics from the Hurtgenwald somewhere in a box.
