Danish 15cm FH

Hi I recall reading a post from long ago concerning Danish heavy howitzers, apparently they had three types, two Bofors and one Schneider, and here are their designations;

15cm FH 17 (Bofors/ four in total)
15cm FH 23 (Bofors/ four in total)
15cm FH 29 (Schneider/ 24 in Total)

It is the Schneider what intrigues me as one source says that it was the 155mm C mle 1917, but I cannot find any data that says the Danes used this gun, plus another source says the Danish FH 29 has a barrel length of L/22 and another L/27, but the C mle 1917 is L/15.

Has anyone got any thoughts on this?

Yan.
