2 pounder A/T gun in 1944

In his 'British and Commonwealth Armies 1944-45' Mark Bevis states (on page 36, note 19), that the 5th. Batallion Cameronians still had 2 pounder A/T guns in July 1944.
I find this very hard to believe as I have never seen a reference to this gun being used in Europe post D-Day - anyone got ideas or thoughts on the subject?

I believe that the two pounder on the carrier in the CWM in Ottawa belonged to the Camerons...
