Panzerfaust 3 was officially accepted and introduced on the 30th September 1992 and replaced both "leichte Panzerfaust 44mm" and "schwere Panzerfaust 84 mm Carl Gustav" during the next months. (no idea how long it took)

Training for the later one had even ceased in '88, as far as I know from own experience. After all, serial production of the Panzerfaust3 already started in '89.
In game term this would mean starting the Pzfaust 3 in 9/92 and ending Pzfaust 44mm in 12/92 and maybe the Carl Gustav in 12/87. Btw., it was the M2 that the Bundeswehr was and is using.

So much for individual subjective impressions.
I can tell you first hand that I life-fired PzFaust 44mm while training my platoon in Grundausbildung in 1994 in Ehra-Lessin and Haltern and also was trained on Carl-Gustav while being at KTS-2 in Munster, 1990.
Maybe you might want to dig deeper into this issue and can come up with some more substantiated data than what can be found on a website ? I guess we need some sensible data from when to when we have overlap dates because equipment didn´t cease to be used from one day to another but is faded out gradually.
