Careful with ID of those guns.

About the images posted by JABIER, I would say:

Image 1; 381mm Mod.1914 gun turret (Genoa perhaps)
Image 2: Probably another 381mm Mod.1914 gun turret
Image 3: I am not sure but perhaps 381mm Mod.1914 guns on Italian monitor Faà di Bruno
Image 4: 381mm Mod.1914 gun turret (Genoa perhaps)

On the other hand, I need help with these Italian coastal guns. Any idea ?

RE #256 Post 30 Nov 2018, 19:18 I concur with the id of 1, 3, and 4 however mm pic no 3 is a mm Japanese CD turret.

Correction I meant to say that no 2 was japanese.

Are you sure those are Italian Sturm78?

Well, the image is from LUCE Italian archive, so I guess they are Italian guns or at least in Italian service....

Well i can only think it is a 152. /40 or /45 is difficult to say.

Could this be a 90 mm/50 A.A. gun ?? from Ebay

[Sturm78]

I think you are right

The turret appears like the naval 90mm.
