Re: Id. naval guns
The gun looks to me like 17 cm SK L/40.
In the "old" Schiffer book (from 1995 -a long time ago in bunkerarcheology ) "German defensive batteries and gun emplacements ... on D-Day", the location of these two picture is given as MKB Vasouy in Normandy with the comment "the only gun of the battery not casemated". And the guns are given as 15 cm SK L/45. It is definitely not MKB Vasouy since all the three 15 cm guns were casemated, and even more definitely no if the guns on the picture are 17 cm SK L/40. In addition, the guns of MKB Vasouy were actually 15 cm Ubts u. Tbts K L/45 from the ship "Ermland'.

Hi all,
8.8cm SK C31 L78 on Dopp LC/31 mount or 10.5cm SK C33 L65 on 8.8cm Dopp LC/31 mount ??
How is possible to differentiate between these two gun models on the same mount ??
