This is a twin 40mm Bofors gun and mount. The unit is mounted on a US Naval trailer from WWII. This gun served on the USS Downes, which was hit while in dry dock during the attack on Pearl Harbor. The gun and mount is in good condition. Reconditioning was started it but but was stopped due to health issues of the owner. These guns & mounts are tough to find, impossible to import, and this particular gun was in the Pearl harbor battle.

The United States Navy's Bureau of Ordnance purchased these 40mm twin-mount air-cooled example directly from Bofors, which arrived in New York on 28 August 1940. During that month another Dutch ship, the van Kinsbergen, demonstrated the Hazemeyer mount to Navy observers. The gun was quickly chosen as the Navy's standard anti-aircraft weapon, and the Navy secretly imported a set of Imperial designs from England and started production illegally. A formal contract with Bofors followed in June 1941. The resulting Mark 1 and Mark 2 weapons were intended for the left and right side of a twin mount, respectively, and were adapted by Chrysler for water cooling.

The model in the photos below on the right, shows clearly where the gun(s) were located.

When the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor 7 December 1941, the Downes was in drydock with Cassin and Pennsylvania. The three came under heavy attack and an incendiary bomb landed between the two destroyers, starting raging fires fed by oil from a ruptured fuel tank. Despite heavy strafing, the crews of the two destroyers got their batteries into action, driving off further attacks by Japanese planes. The drydock was flooded in an effort to quench the fires, but the burning oil rose with the water level and when the ammunition and torpedo warheads on board the destroyers began to explode, the two ships were abandoned. Later Cassin slipped from her keel blocks and rested against Downes. Listed at first as complete losses, both of these destroyers were repaired and joined the war.

Salvage operations were soon begun on Downes with machinery and other salvageable equipment being shipped to Mare Island Navy Yard. She was officially decommissioned 20 June 1942. Additional information and photos: http://www.navsource.org/archives/05/375.htm

There is hole cut in compression chamber as required by BATF and small metal rod placed though the barrel.

Easy fix if you don't plan to shoot an actual 76mm live round.

It is BATF legal now!
This gun was demilitarized to Finland Defense Force requirements and could be made active again if you did not want to fire live rounds or wanted to set it up as a sub-caliber!

The breech is cut to BATF specs, but the cut is made so not to cut vital holes etc., and the breech block is tack welded to front half breech and back half tack welded to breech block, so it easy to disassemble.

It should be fairly easy to make functional.

We believe there are only a couple of these in the USA!

The Finnish technical manual included.

The tires are in fine shape and it has been towed some distance as is a couple times, or will go on a light trailer!

This 45-mm anti-tank gun model 1937 (53-K) was a combination of a modified carriage of the 37 mm anti-tank gun model 1931 with a 45 mm barrel. The resulting light semi-automatic anti-tank gun was adopted for Red Army service in 1937. These guns were used in the first stage of the Great Patriotic War, but their anti-armor capabilities allowed them to fight successfully only with German light tanks and armored personnel carriers. Early models of the Panzer III and Panzer IV could also be knocked out at close range, but this put Soviet artillerymen in greater danger. Due to these circumstances, model 1937 guns were replaced with the more powerful model 1942. The mass production of outdated model 1937 guns was stopped in 1943. The total number of guns produced was 37,354.

The gun was employed by anti-tank platoons of rifle battalions (2 guns) and by anti-tank battalions of rifle divisions (12 guns). It was also used by separate anti-tank regiments (4-5 batteries of 4 guns each).
