The 40mm 2 pounder gun was the best anti-tank gun during the early years of WW2. Depending on which type of anti-tank ammunition it used (there were three different kinds), it could penetrate 55-64mm of armor at 100 metre, and 49-52mm of armor at a range of 500 metres, and since the Pz.Kpfw. IV Ausf. G only had 50mm of armor at the hull and turret fronts, I really don“t see why it is unrealistic that the 2 pounder can penetrate the Ausf. G?
