Good afternoon.
This is the polish version of the french Schneider 105 mm gun Mle. 1913 of WWI era. During the interwar period a new gun was ordered, it was a modified 1913 gun with a split trail for higher elevation but were left with the original wooden wheels for horse traction, with the barrels of either french or polish manfacture. After 1939, 54 captured guns were sold to Finland during the Continuation War. Finns called the gun 105 K/29 (the original Schneider was called 105 K/13) and the guns were fitted with steel wheels and pneumatic tires for high speed motor traction. The gun outranged german and soviet howitzers.


Edited, after Eusuwe useful corrections.

Good work with Praga.

Re: 105mm
Nice as a drawing in itself, but if it's with pneumatic tires, then it's "Finland, 105 K/29".
Or You can caption it as
Finland, 105 K/29
(ex-Polish 105mm armata wz.29)
Also, have You taken into account, that in regards to barrel, the wz.29 had it longer than original mle.13? (3240mm vs. 2987mm respectively)?

Nice work reytuerto

Thanks, Eswube. Bad cop? No way! Maybe strict teacher !
I know that the polish gun barrel was a little longer (31 calibers vs 28 calibers), but I don´t know if it was correctly reflected in my drawing .
I have another doubt. If the gun is 105 K/29, it must be painted in finnish apearance. But only color pictures of the gun that I had seen are in the website Jaeger Platoon, and the color of the gun is of a very pale green, and I don´t know if it is correct, or if it is very faded with the years. And I will appreciate any help.

Thanks Nestin!

Well, about the camouflage colors of the Finnish army ask Gollevainen, maybe He will be able to help.
