I wonder if P-O knows something more, maybe they are restoring/repainting the gun

the 8.8cm gun is completely dismounted and is being cosmetically restored.
I had a look for some pics that I took in 2009 and/or 2010 but can't find them again.

Thanks. Please let us know whenever you get some up to date info on the restoration.

BTW Is there an artillery museum in France? Kind of the Saumur equivalent, but for artillery?

The Panzers are all on Flickr, including many subjects I haven't posted here and multiple shots. The gallery is still a work in progress:

Massimo

here it is :

http://musee.artillerie.asso.fr/

If you go there :
http://musee.artillerie.asso.fr/800%20materiels-collection.htm

and then click on France or USA or Allemagne etc.. you will see the different artillery pieces on display at the museum.

There are also some AFVs (an M7B7 for example), that you can see there :

Not bad. From that list I also identified the gun I posted earlier in this thread!
