Knowing that the Germans plundered Europe for anything they could find, anyone know what this piece is?
#2: Re: ID this piece? Author: CharlieC, Posted: Thu Nov 28, 2013 12:43 pm ---- Looks like a "Canon G de Côte de 95mm Mle 1888".
According to "Les Canons de la Victoire 1914-1918 Tome 3" 474 were constructed for coastal defences in France.
It's hard to pick up the recoil arrangement - it was a Vavasseur style
inclined rails with a pair of hydraulic recoil cylinders.
