Hi,
is the gun at the pic 100% a German one? The wheel discs and the tyre pattern looks similar as the Soviet one here: http://www.thetankmaster.com/IMAGES/AFV ... 942_03.jpg
Also it´s dfficult (at least for me :) ) to find out the differences between the (carriages of) 37mm and 45mm Soviet AT-guns

Regards, Juha

P.S. did the Germans re-barrel the Soviet AT-guns to their own 37mm barrels?
