Most of the time they just welded the hatches shut. If you can't get to the cannon, how are you going to fire it? The only cannons that have any kind of tampering with the firing mechanism are the field guns and the ones they took out of the vehicles and put on stilts:
+1
and I'm guessing lots a of vodka to start it and if the hatch is welded shut you just cut it open with a blow torch as general Patton said
"if it's stupid but it works its not stupid"
Its said they mounted a Heavy Machinegun on it -> was used as an armored MG carrier.
The APCs are not heavily armored, BMP & BDRs are only protected from 7.62mm on the sides -> vulnerable to 12.7mm MGs.
The IS3 would not be hurt by 30mm autocannon that a BMP would be shooting back with.
The rebels have also got a T34-85 up & running.

It's not like they'd keep live ammunition and propellant in it, let alone for a dated gun the former com bloc hasn't used in decades.

I doubt any 122mm shells are lying around, but most medium artillery pieces are 122mm round these parts, if there's one thing the IS3 would be good for is its armor and HE shell

In eastern bloc countries, they usually weld the hatches shut or weld a bar across the barrel.
Nothing some basic tools can't handle
