And pic took if I was in army (It's complusory here, almost every man have to pass 8 to 11 [depends which rank you will qualify] month long army session, where you can get your "war job"). And my "war job" was to destroy tanks. On the pic I am closest, rearward man (weapon on his soldier) is my "team-mate". This weapon, grenades and other extra equipment was quite heavy, so there was 3 men in one team - one man carried the weapon and 2 others carried the grenades/extra equiptment (and obv each man had is own automatic rifle/personal equipment too) and if was "shooting time", then the guys who carried the grenades helped to reload the weapon.
Generally very uncomfortable and heavy weapon. Also it was very annoying to carry it 24 hours in day to everywhere during the "outside learning sessions" (one learning session was usually 5 days long, sometimes longer).
Fortunately there was one good thing, shooting was very fun and unforgettable experience, especially if you hit your target
Then u will hear two very big "booms" - one is shooting boom and another when it hits and target explodes.
