You’re just bad with it, or one of those shooting at jumbo front plate and wondering “why no work?”
Try Moscow’s Axis AT rifles, THEN see if your opinion doesn’t change…

What are you having trouble with? I get killed by it pretty often actually. Are you trying to use it without aiming at a weakspot? Are you trying to hit a part that is angled (it might be bouncing off if that is the case)?
How are you trying to use it? That would help identify the specific issue.

Certainly:
Vehicles use elaborate (sometimes flawed, true) damage models. Tanks do NOT have “hp” bars or life or whatever. You could shoot a thousand sturm shots on the track, and the tank would never “die” for example.
But you can 1 shot tanks, even with the sturm, if you know WHERE to shoot.
-
ammunition racks: will make the tank explode immediately. Often found on the sides of the tank, back of turret, etc. (Look at xray models)
-
engine: shoot this, and the tank becomes immobilized. You may finish it up with tnt or wait for the crew to disembark and gun them. Can also make the tank catch fire. If it does… wait. The crew WILL get out, or cook to death. Then the tank will explode all by itself.
-
fuel tanks: chance to catch fire. Also protects innermost modules thought.
-
suspension: shoot it and the tank can’t move anymore. Refer to engine description.
-
turret ring: breaking it gives self explanatory results.
-
gun breach: take it out, tank can’t even shoot anymore.
-
etc.
Again, learn tank weaknesses, where to shoot. Enlisted doesn’t use dumb models like battlefield, or world of tank wih hp bars. Also if you shoot at a tank front plate, especially a jumbo, with the sturm… You seriously can’t expect to have good results and blame your weapon afterwards.

True.
I only went hard on the guy because it’s yet another stupid rant sent in suggestion tab.
Piat is indeed better. The Sturm is… usable. I’ve got hilarious tank destructions with it.
But the reason I don’t mind much is that my first extensively played campaign is Moscow. There, I had to endure not one, but two absolutely worthless AT rifles on axis side. Mind you, back then AT rifles were even weaker than they are now (they got buffed, they auto flame engines now) until I got the conversion that shoots grenades. And the pistole is just that, but more compact and easier to use 
Nah, it’s really not too bad in Normandy. Means to destroy tanks here are numerous, and the fields are so bumpy there’s cover everywhere.

Long range sturmpistole kill on stuart gang.
Clearly skill issue if You can’t pen Jumbo frontally with german pistol at 200m
yup moscow is my initial campaign as well
and pzb 39 is the most worthless upgrade in enlisted , second is beretta m38 20 mag
it should have been used extensively in tunis by axis along with buoys for brits
no pzb38

I think they use the 38 in Tunisia…
I did not use that long. (Uuuh why me no can hurt Grant?!) My (campaign lvl 9…) engineers built big guns instead.
I kinda like the 39 converted as a grenade thrower. Comes with a really absurd amount (you can get like what, 12?) Just (plenty) enough to immobilize a vehicle so that it’s vulnerable to tnt or enough to bait the crew out while I wait patiently with a scoped rifle.
Now I got the pre-panzershreck, and feel I’m in AT dream paradise. (I still use Piat allies side, cause commonwealth = Moose country)
Mmmh. Too many ppl got the silly misconception that “if I shoot a tonk anywhere with a weapon with AT description, it will explode Hollywood style, with a fireball shaped like a mushroom cloud nuke and all after a set amount of damage” I blame cod, battlefield and wot for this…

Problem with Sturmpistole is it is the primary AT weapon for troops until level 30 which is absolutely too many levels of having to use it.

Try boys atr and pzb will be for you a great thing.

I’ve tried them all. It’s why I say the op whines for not much…
I agree.
But, you shouldn’t make posts in the suggestion tab without giving any suggestions at all. The forum moderators hate that kind of stuffs and they’ll probably close this post sooner than later

PzB was and are be useful. You always can easily destroy first 3 tanks.
Boys atr was have(maybe now no?) problems with all tanks, it destroy module or kill crewmate only for dozens shots.(even against ab41/m13)
