I've seen a closer video of it firing, although the firing could be simulated. Basically they seem to drive it up and point it at a target, fine aim it with the little adjusting wheels and then everyone gets clear and one man reaches up into the turret and fires it.
Close up the framework looks to be angle iron, but like I said, the video that was supposed to prove it fired could have been rigged. The gun went boom but they could have had a firework up there for all I know.
