I know over in the states these guns are quite common but here in the UK there are only a couple but what makes this particular one unique is that it is from the British contract to supply the BEF for the invasion of France.
I bought it from a company who have had it in there possesion since 1946 and in turn bought it from the War Department.

What type of business would have had a requirement for a 25mm Anti-Tank Gun, in today's UK?
