If a 37 mm.....?
Why the speed loading clip with ten rounds.....?? did the 37 have a auto load function....???
So the gunner would spot with tracers on the .50 then hit the middle gun for a few rapid shots......... some duck shoot!!!!

The halftrack books usually show clean and "posed" Ordnance Branch side views. This is the vehicle in action, although it is a stupid place for the photographer to stand.
Having helped the Cold War Collection move its M3 closer to Ottawa, I can state they are a lot smaller in person than in the pictures. Imagine a 2-ton pickup frame with a flatbed, but 1930s technology and only sharp edges.
