            @Akira: that K3 pic is awesome !
            Note the extra powderbag (Vorkartusche) on the right.

            @Craig: the first gun looks french, well... at least ammo and breech do.
            At the moment i think it's a 15,5 cm Mle 1917 Scheider gun.

            Third gun looks like a 15 cm s.FH 18, next to a 2 cm Flak 38.
            The ammunition are all for the 15 cm s.FH 18 as well.

            Last picture: on the left looks like a 8,8 cm Flak 18, on the right is difficult,it looks like a double 10,5 cm S.K. C/32 navy Flak gun.

                If I'm not wrong...

                Gun #6 is a 22cm Mrs 531(f), ex-French Mortier de 220mm C Mle 1916, Schneider




                Gun #14 is a 15.5cm K 416 (f) ex-French Canon de 155 L Mle 1917, Schneider

                        @Akira: judging by the shape of the breechend, and the ammunition shown, this must be a 17 cm S.K./L 40.

                        There were not that many 17 cm S.K./L 40 guns along the Channelcoast, so you might be able to trace this picture back to it's specific location, i'll see what i can find out.

                        Additional info about the ammunition, and some pic's can be found here:

                        To all: Thanks for the pictures !

                          Thanks a lot for the info, Herr Z&uuml;nder! And you have a highly focused website, my salute. Most probably your spanish friend also has this...

                          <img src="http://www.history.jp/images/DV.Zuender.jpg">

                          It appears to me that Craig's photo also shows a gun with a similar breech block (that is why I posted mine), can you identify it for us?

                              Hmm, first thing that comes to mind is a 15 cm K16.

                              I'll do some further research.

                                Bumping up this thread after 4 years of silence.

                                A new K3 album has arrived from Rick; with an existing K3 group it makes a nice set.
