Breech block looks like Schneider's kind of 155 mm barrel? Festung Oppeln (currently Poland).

It looks to me like an ex-Italian 149/19 Obice – 14,9 cm sFH404(i). :idea:

Yes, it is a Norwegian 7.5 cm L/45 M/16.

Do you mean the 76 mm casemate gun mod. 40? No, it's not this one.

It is not well known L-17 fortress gun (Molotov line). It is similar to the older 7,6cm gun mod. 1932 (Stalin line), but is is not it. There was also DOT-2 7,6cm fortress gun, produced to replace older guns of Stalin line, but I do not know, how it looks like.

Any idea on the gun , looks to have a Schneider type muzzle-brake
It should be a Rumanian gun according Ebay but it hard to see .

Jos,

Maybe a 10 cm M28 Skoda exported to Romania? :idea: Several Skoda guns had a Schneider type muzzle brake but only a handful seemed to have an additional bracket behind it.

The 8 cm M.28 Skoda also had the bracket behind the muzzle brake but I don't think it was exported to Romania. It also had a longer barrel than the 10 cm M28.

See thread "Skoda artillery in the late 1930s" http://forum.axishistory.com/viewtopic. ... 0&start=15

Looks like Korperwerfer 66 L23 for shooting bombs from gun barrel into impact walll (for tests).
Nice find Jos!
