The Solothurn S-18/1000 20 mm Anti-Tank rifle was a Swiss and German anti-tank rifle used during the Second World War. It was a variant of the earlier S-18/100 with modifications for a higher muzzle velocity as well as a larger cartridge size. As a result of its large powerful ammunition the gun had a tremendous recoil and its size made portability difficult.
