I found this pic of two IDF amx-13 tanks. The one pointing to the left is definitely a normal max in IDF service. But the other in the front appears to have a shorter barrel and stickier turret. Could just be an illusion or is it a Chaffee turret. Here is the pic.

Both are the same type of AMX 13, i.e 2B hull with FL10 turret armed with the SA50 gun.

I guess it's just the angle that makes it look like a shorter barrel
