daryland, Oct. 9, 1945. When
,he gun arrived the Naval Science
lepartment agreed it would not be
reasible to mount it in the armory
)ecause of its extraordinary size.
If the massive gun had been
mounted there, it would have
necessitated probing the floor so
that the hoist .might extend into
bhe basement.
The five-inch gun mount is base
ring type, dual purpose, and open
mount assemblies for emplacement
with ammunition handling room
beneath the mount.
The gun assembly of each mount
with elements of the slide com
prises a semi-automatic rapid fire
piece capable of sustained fire of
15 rounds per minute.
Ammunition is served to the gun
by an electric hoist. The ammuni
tion is then taken from the hoist
by hand and placed into the gun
loading tray.
The complete mount assembly
weighs approximately 47,000
pounds.
