The M3A1 37mm L/45 was a copy of the famous German PaK 35/36 series antitank gun, fitted with a muzzle
brake to reduce recoil (since the recoil was so low anyway, the muzzle brake was usually removed before the gun
left the factory!).  This weapon was already obsolete by the time it was adopted, although variants were made
for use on light tanks and the gun itself was used in the campaign in North Africa.  It was quickly declared
unsatisfactory, and most of them were sent to the Pacific theater, where they were effective against the lightly-
armored Japanese tanks at close range.  In the European theater, it was replaced by the 57mm and 76mm
antitank guns M1 and M5.

The M5 76mm L/55 antitank gun was based on the 3” M3 antiaircraft gun, modified to accept the breech and
carriage assembly of the M2 105mm howitzer.  It was heavy for its type, requiring a 6x6 truck to tow it,
however, it was still a very popular weapon due to its long range and good penetration characteristics.  It was
mounted, in a slightly modified form, on the M10 Wolverine tank destroyer.  Although manufacture had begun
before the North African campaign, it was not available in quantity to front-line units until the invasion of Italy
in 1943.  2,500 M5 antitank guns were built, and another 6,824 were made for the M10 and other
tank destroyers.
