Hi nuyt, jopaerya,
Interesting thread. The K-class gunboats were designed with High-Angle twin mounts (see drawing in this thread), but ultimately received low-angle 12 cm, similar or identical to the ones on the Gerard Callenburgh-class destroyers.
@jopaerya, does the second pair of photos also show K-3? Did you find anything on the German evaluation of the performance of these guns?
Hope you don't mind me asking, but I've always had a special interest in these K-class gunboats.
Thanks,
Visje

Hello Visje
Sorry I can't help you further , for the last 2 photo's I am not sure if they are from the K-3,
the two middle one's I know for sure because they came from a photoalbum from the K-3 from Ebay .
For the preformance of these guns , I have found little information from German sources .
