Hi Steve:
Brassey's Artillery of the World shows for a 57 mm AT gun only
Soviet block M 1943 (ZIS 2). If this be the one u r looking for then
it's 1,150 kg.
Nothing shown for non Sov Block countries or former client states.
If you are looking for Brit 6 Pounder AT ( also 57mm)entered service
in 1942, then that would be 1,244 kg --- hold on -- reading on it
states it was also built in US as 57 mm M1 and was also used as a SP
Anti Tank gun on an armored truck which was known as "Deacon".

Regards, Ron
