Darren Baker shares with us a walk around of the Keren Gun, a 25pdr that during the 1941 capture of Keren fired 24000 rounds a day on average (16 - 17 rounds a minute). This is not I believe the actual Keren gun but who knows.

Nice pics.
Should help with Bronco's 25pdr, Soon please!
If I remember right the (major) differences are no muzzle brake, no armour cover between the breech & gunshield & different mark of sight.
