The video they link to shows a shoulder fired rocket launcher. The story says it “had been fired”.

The whole story seems pretty shady.

Ummm... okay... what TYPE of AT gun? We talking an arty cannon? 75mm PAK? RPG7? Javelin? Soviet 45mm?

RPG7 and Javs can be discarded without a charge and are essentially useless except as a souvenir. Most larger AT GUNS are towed by a vehicle and generally not suitable for infantry use.
