According to the bronze conclusion I conclude that it is an older version rakouskouherského field gun “8-cm Feldkanone M.5“, the company of Böhler. The modernisation work done by the Škoda company replaced the bronze of the cannons full of steel. In this form, they served the 8-cm Feldkanone M.5/8 not only in rakouskouherské the army, but as the prey came into the armament of the surrounding armies. In the army of the czechoslovak republic served under the designation 8 cm kanon vz.05/08 and the Wehrmacht is taken over into your loadout as the 7.65-cm Feldkanone 5/8 (t). One of the conserved ex-czechoslovak units in the version for moto-traction is located “across the pond“ in the utah city Salt Lake City Fort Douglas Military Museum..
