Hello Werner
Looks to me the 28 cm schwere Bruno K. (E) , so it could be E.A.A. 689 ??

Hi Jopaerya,
I think your gun is a mock up or toy.

It is a lovely model. As a model maker it looks like someone has scratch-built it. I would like to know more about it. I always find models that have been built from scratch have more character than kit built no matter how much closer to scale and more detailed a kit can be.

The photocaption places the first in Crete and the other one in Greece so this could match .
