Hello Barovic

The mounting of the 2 pounder is called Mark 8 , there are some photo's with German troops firing
this gun and on a list I have found the name 4 cm Flak Vickers ( 1x Kanalkuste and 4 x Holland ) .

Another 2 pdr on Mk8 mounting in Dunkirk 1940. Expired ebay picture.

First photo looks to be a Polsten cannon in a special naval type mount (note the long cylinder above barrel), the one being operated by the Germans in the port is probably an MG-151/20.

Thanks SASH155

The M.G. 151/20 is a good option , but I am not sure about the Polsten .

I now believe that it's an Oerlikon 3S.

I believe this flak gun is a Italian Cannone-Mitragliera da 20/77 (Scotti) .

Hello,

this looks like a Canon léger de 25 antichar SA-L modèle 1934 with an extra supplement to enable it to be horse drawn?
Anyone seen it before? Thanks for your replies.

From e-bay.de

Hello Barovic

I am not sure but I thought that are photo's from the horse-drawn 25 mm pak in the Magazine 39/45 .
