Hi all,

According to Getty archive photo caption, captured French gun. It is evident that the caption is wrong but I have some doubts
The gun is a 7.5cm Krupp gun but I think this gun model was not in use with German Army. Perhaps, a captured gun but...of which country ?

Romanian it is a possibility but I think the Romanian 7.5cm Krupp guns were different because had not seats on shield...

Any idea ?

Hi Strum

It is a Belgian 75mm gun. Even the limber matches.

Hi all,

An image from Ebay. I think a recaptured 10cm gun turret of a pre WW1 old fortress...

Looks Krupp per design, but do not know the model. Could be an export model (RU, TR, SP, JP), carriage not very heavy, barrel possibly ultra short (unless missing), Mörser-like, around 21cm?

Looks a lot like the 15cm Versuchshaubitze L12 by Krupp, used by Belgium and Turkey during WW1:
