48P8, Gewehrschartenverschluss

Thickness 40 mm
Weight 250 kg
Dimensions 750 x 820 mm
Closing mechanism Sliding plate

This heavy version of the Gewehrschartenverschluß has been used for Eingangs- and Nahverteidigung, in tunnelsystems (Hohlgänge) and small MG positions. It can still be found in all German bunkers all over Europe.

By closing the slide and tightening the knobs it became gas proof.
