Hello all.

Nope.
Actually Uwe is right, because in Red Army there were as much 122 mm M1910 in 1941 as specialized artillery tractors (I don't count "Kommunar" agricultural tractors) in 1930 — 0. :) And there's not a single visual difference between M1910 and M1910/30 if the latter has old wheels.
With best regards, Ilya.

Hello again,
I think a Br-5 M1939. The tractor is claimed to be an Allis-Chalmers HD-10W with a truck cabin installed at http://waralbum.ru/34444.

You're right except it's not a WOT-6 but a shorter WOT-8.

See here:

I saw one of those PTP gun in the Finnish Artillery Museum in Hammenlilla, years ago. It struck me for being so crude to make me wonder how could it actually work! On the other side the 45 mm AT guns i saw in the Parola Armour Museum were very well built and purpose-looking weapons. Worlds apart!
