Direct fire using eyeballs and sights only (will accept optics as long as glass only; no targeting or tracking tech).

Will also allow for mines, command detonated or switch/lever engaged.

Mine? (get it?)

Panzerfaust.

For what it was, huge impact on the battlefield.

If you may be trying to actually trying to kill one
RPG-29
Dard 120 (Don't think it was actually produced though)

If you want to mix it up in general
RPG-7
LAW

ETA: I imagine the OP's spirit of topic is things that are dismounted man on the ground useful. A big ass IED for both heavy and light use should be added.

I will take the Glock 19..... I mean the Carl Gustav.

It was cool with the popping rockets.

Dragons were cool but were a turd after shooting TOWs. I am too old to have gotten to shoot a Javelin, but as far as non guides go I think a smaw was cool but don't know what they would do on a tank .

OK, I will respond in the spirit which the OP wants.

The British PIAT, but only if I don't have to fire it, or cock it.

Just through second handle knowledge, my favorite is the "Carl G". Sadly, I wasn't cool enough to play with them IRL.

As an old M60/M1 series Armor Crewman I'll always go with the main gun but......I'm partial
to the M72 too!

EDIT: I gotta say too, I was always pretty impressed (30+ years ago) with Soviet 85mm AT
guns.

Oh, and an ignition source. Preferably not carried by said 8 year old.

I'd love to play with one of those, probably my favorite overall.

Followed closely by the Carl Gustav. Plus I used to have an M72 tube, I really want to shoot one of those too

I honestly don't know much history on it. Was it obselete due to new tank armor I guess? The action to reduce recoil and make it fireable from a human shoulder is what I found cool along with the 20 mm of course.

I got to play with one in Lithuania.

My old unit, the lowest of low speed infantry units (2CR), just received a bunch last month. I'd rather have that to shoot at Russian armor vs. some bullshit AT-4.

I’m old skool 11boo. We had 90mm RR, and that thing kicked ass. Unless you had to carry it.

Then we transitioned to the M72. Half the power, fraction of the weight.

Still preferred the 90mm.
