VDS 40K
NDS P/40K

The three circled inscriptions are (from top to bottom) u, k, and p.

I can't read the inscription on the top with the numbers by it, but the other says BUM, I think. I don't read cyrillic very well. The letters and numbers given at the top are literal (phonic) transliterations from the cyrillic in the second picture.
Somebody else will have to translate what these mean in gun terms, I know nothing about Russian guns.

*Edit* Corrected first transliteration.
