I think that the first one is a 8 cm M.17 Skoda.

German designations:
7.65 cm FK 17 (ö) and (t) (ex-Austrian and ex-Czech M.17 Skoda)
7,65 cm FK 303 (j) (ex-Jugoslavian M.17 Skoda)

Hi Manuferey,

8cm Skoda M.17 ??? Ummmm... :? I think rather in a 8cm Skoda FK M.05 or a 8cm FK M.05/08, but I am not sure. Any more reviews?

Have anyone any ideas for the second photo?

Regards Sturm78

Sturm78,

There is no "hump" on a barrel of a M.05 or M.o5/08 unlike a M.17. Please see here for example:

Hi Manuferey,

The gun of my photo has not hump in the barrel and therefore I suppose it will be an 8cm M05 or M05/08.

Hi all,

I found this image on Ebay. I'm almost sure this gun is a 10cm K17, but I see some differences in the front of the cradle.
Can anyone confirm this?

On the other hand, Have anyone a photo of 10cm K17 barrel trailer?

Hello Sturm78

I think that your photo is made during repair or maintenance and the cover was not placed yet .

Well, after all I guess my last photo shows a 10cm K17 without front cradle cover :roll:

Here another two images (from Ebay) showing captured equipment:
I think both images show 76.2mm M1902-30 russian field guns but I am not sure. Can anyone confirm this?


PD: Sorry for the hardness of one of the images. War is very cruel
