I have made a lot of pics in a museum near Eindhoven and in those pics is this gun
Now I have a question.. I just put this in my new gallery on the web and I have no info bout it.
What`s it`s name what`s the calibre and more could somebody help me out then I can give it a name in the gallery.
If you need more pics they can be found here the pics of the gun start at page 4 till 5
Thanks in advance

From this angle it would seem to be the US 155mm "Long Tom" gun, used during WWII and for a long time post-war (there was also an 8 inch gun mounted on the same carriage which had a shorter barrel).

Indeed it looks like a Long tom gun as you say so it probably would be that I`ll change the name in the gallery.
Thanks for giving the beast a name
