Default Translation of Russian data plate

добрый день Slava!

I hope you are well and that your restoration is moving forward. I have attached an image of the data plate from our M1942 Zis 3 76.2mm Field gun and I hope you can help with the translation. I can get most of the words using an online translation tool but some are clearly technical terms that the translation tools can't handle.

Would you be so kind as to give your impression. I am preparing an English language mini-manual for the museum's volunteers who will be manning and firing the gun and I would like to include an English version of the data plate.

By the way, for those who need the artwork done for data plates, we have a very talented chap on this forum who does amazing work. He may be a bit shy so I'll let him jump in if he wishes to. The attached image is his work from a photo of a faded image in a Hungarian manual! The original on our gun is long gone!

Ура! Mike
