No that's a 2 pounder. Which is ridiculous as I have one and never saw that one. The poly was very opaque so I must have missed it. Ron

Ron -

Ref the Carrier makers plate...the T No seems v strange...772152...could the 7 have been stamped twice ?

Well I've blown that number up and it actually reads 77ZT52 ?
I think I can see file marks. Could this be post war number from it's test bed days? Ron

Like Ron said, it's a 2-pdr AT gun in the back of an MW, which is masquerading as an MWG - read more about the Bedford MWG here
