Here you've got two photos of a Canadian high-velovity 6 pounder anti-aircraft/anti-tank gun. It was developed in 1943 from a high-velocity (and 64 calibre long barrel) version of the 6pdr 7cwt that was mounted on an AA carriage. The gun as may be seen remained hand-loaded but there were several attempts to make it automatic. The Canadians thougth of a Molins autoloader or a recoil operated autoloader with 5-round clips. The project was terminated before any of those ideas were implemented.Piotr
