I scanned some parts of the original documents found in the Sammelmappe - Verfügungen als Ersatz für eine spätere Neuarbeitung der Baustärke B, Teil 3 Betonbau und Panzerungen.
The complete folder is also found in NARA's Record Group 242, T-78 rolls 773/774/775, but of course you get better quality images from scanning the original in 400dpi colour.

Of course, the following images have been reduced and compressed to comply with the limitations of the forum:

very interesting. It seems indeed this M19 was automatic, most likely due to the placement
of an electromotor connected to the Swungscheibe! Interesting! No lists by any chance
for Hoek van Holland ?

Peter
I’ve not seen any other type of M19 described in documents as Vollautomatische. They are either Handantrieb or Motorantrieb. Could the two M19’s at IJmuiden have been fitted with the automatic loading prototypes. Anyone have any photos/info on the interior of the 633’s here before they were demolished?

They were demolished in the sixties and I've never seen a photo of the weapons there. It might be that one of the weapons ended up in Koblenz in the museum.

In the years 80 of the past century a M 19 of the Armamentarium Delft is given/solded/trade to the museum in Koblenz :oops:

Thanks Jos and Arthur

So help me out, are you saying the M19 at Armamentarium Delft that ended up at koblenz was one of the examples from IJmuiden?

Both the Koblenz examples are the standard M19 as found on the AW, so this would discount my theory.

Great photo Jos. I wonder if they gave the tables and everything away to Koblenz too?

Koblenz has a lot of M19 parts in stock.
They restored one of those M19 they got from the AW, the other one, which was used as part carrier for the restored one, was lend to Rheinmetall.
Here is a photo of the barrel with the number.
