Re: Foreign Legion

Canon de 65 M (montagne) modele 1906 - good choice. It was used up to 1950.

Re: Foreign Legion

Agreed this is a most useful gun - for colonial conflicts, WW1, warlord armies in China, probably the SCW, WW2 and then by Israel.

In the photos I find of that gun though, the carriage has lots of holes to save weight. So some more work seems necessary on the master.

canon de montagne 65 mm

Great subject. Hopefully the holes could be made in the carriage. I for one, would be very happy to buy the same gun with a chasseur alpine crew. Thus, a set of chasseurs alpine WWI would be a first in plastic.
