The Reichswehr take over the role of maintaining civil order---Saxony,1923

The Missed Revolution of 1923

http://www.wsws.org/articles/2008/oct20 ... -o31.shtml
While the Chemnitz congress was still meeting, the Reichswehr began to occupy Saxony. Armed conflicts left several workers dead. On October 28 president Friedrich Ebert, a Social Democrat, gave orders for the Reichsexekution against Saxony--the forceful removal of the government in Saxony headed by Erich Zeigner, himself a Social Democrat, by the Reichswehr. The public indignation was so massive that the SPD was obliged to resign from the Stresemann government in Berlin. A few days later the Reichswehr entered Thuringia and removed the government there.

The deposition of these two left-wing governments by Ebert and Seeckt encouraged the extreme right in Bavaria. On November 8, Adolf Hitler proclaimed a "national revolution" in Munich and staged a coup.

there are two pics of Kraftwagen guns, the very first pic and the one marked Panzerauto 1919.
Both seem to have the 7,7 cm L27 Krupp gun.
