The QF 6-pounder is a British artillery gun used during the early to mid-20th century, primarily in World War I and World War II. It was designed to fire a 6-pound (2.72 kg) projectile and was known for its versatility and effectiveness against both infantry and light armored vehicles. The gun could be towed by vehicles or mounted on various platforms, including tanks. This artillery piece was notable for its quick-firing capability, allowing for rapid shots in combat situations. It was often used in conjunction with other weapons, such as the Bren gun and Lee-Enfield rifle, to provide comprehensive support on the battlefield.
