76mm Anti-tank Gun - Florence, AL - Static Artillery Displays on Waymarking.com

The plaque says that this is a T-3 (T-78) Experimental anti-tank gun. The only reference I can find for a 76mm anti-tank gun is the T124 E2 so that is what I believe this actually is.

The T124 E2 antitank gun is based on a tank main gun. The guns were fitted onto light-weight carriages. Production began in late 1950 when the US army discovered their current ATG's were ineffective against North Korean T-34's at the start of the Korean War. Apparently only 100 were made before production stopped. Development of the various recoilless rifles eliminated the need for a crew served, towed ATG.

I found no marking on the breech of this piece like on the other T124 I have waymarked.
