WW1 field gun


Recommended Posts

it does not have a schneider breach ring. Looks like a Skoda 100mm model 1914 with original horse traction wheels,

 

I think an example possibly ex Italian was captured by the british in the desert and brought home and was photographed alongside a British 25pdr so it could still exist in some collection.

Thanks. It seems to match. I didn't know that the French used Austro-Hungarian weaponry - unless of course they (going against the grain!) actually captured one!i
