Unknow gun
Re: Unknow gun
Hi all,
I need some help with these images:
Image 1: According to photocaption captured Russian guns but I think they are Yugolav captured guns. I can identify 20mm Breda M1935 AA guns X2, 77mm M5/28 or M5/32 AA guns X4 (I do not know the difference) and ???. Can somebody confirm this and/or identify the other guns?
Image 2: I think 75mm Mle1897 ex-french barrel gun on rare carriage. Does anybody know where this image was taken?
Images from Ebay.
Thanks in advance. Sturm78

You're right - Yugoslav guns.Sturm78 wrote:Image 1: According to photocaption captured Russian guns but I think they are Yugoslav captured guns.

Breda 20mm was in Yugoslav armament as "20mm M.39 AA gun" ("heavy machine-gun")
Four next guns looks like ex-Austrian M.5/8 guns, modified for AA use - in "transport mode".
(M5/28 was mounted on wooden platform for AA use; M.5/32 on steel one; everything else was identical)
Next two are "80mm M.28" Skoda (export) AA guns; also used by Argentina; real caliber 76.5mm, barrel L/50.
Next two are "80mm M.28" Skoda field guns ("Skoda EF"); real caliber 76.5mm, barrel L/40 (slightly modified, later adopted by Czechoslovakia as 8-cm "Vz. 30"; "Skoda EF1", in 75mm, was used by Romania)
Next - ??? - not visible enogh.

Re: Unknow gun
Thank you Sturm78 for posting the picture of the Yugoslav guns and thank you the Edge for the identification. Here is a close-up of the 20 mm Breda guns (from ebay.com). I had suspected for a long time that the gun on the left was a 8 cm M.5 AA type gun but now it's confirmed! The caption on ebay was "SERBIAN FLAK CANNONS CAPTURED".
Here is a link with pictures of a remaining 8 cm M.5 AA gun in Italy:

Re: Unknow gun
I can't believe anyone thought that kind of AA gun was useful at all, i am talking about 8cm.M05. Not even a pedestal mounting.

Re: Unknow gun
It looks like the barrel of a French "220 mm Long Mle 1917 Schneider" gun.

Re: Unknow gun
While cleaning up I found 2 pics I took somewhere in Luxembourg country 20 years ago.
I have no idea what this could exactly be. My first guess would be a small pak without wheels...
Thanks for IDing this poor piece of history.

It seems this gun was too big for such a small ship as shown at the photo. IMHO, it could be dangerous for its own ship...ludvig wrote:10,5 cm Ubts. u. Tbts. Flak L/45 in Ubts. u. Tbts. L. C/16
