Produktbeschreibung
In 1935 Rheinmetall-Borsig AG started to design a 7.5cm gun that would go on to become the standard artillery weapon of Germany’s mountain infantry, the Gebirgsjäger.
After development the weapon entered service in 1938 as the 7.5cm GebG36. The split trail allowed for high elevation and the recoil system was ’variable, automatically shortening the recoil as the elevation increased.
It was fitted with lightweight disc wheels with solid rubber tyres and initially had no shield to save weight, but one was added later.
It was fitted with a perforated muzzle brake to reduce recoil.
The whole gun could be broken down into eight separate loads, which became one of the primary reasons the gun was also adopted by the Fallschirmjäger. Broken down the gun could be easily loaded into a Ju-52 aircraft for transport to the combat zone once the Fallschirmjäger had secured a landing area.
The GebG36 was well liked by its users and it remained in service throughout the war.

Calibre: 7.5cm
Length of gun: 1447.5mm
Length of bore: 972mm (L19.3)
Breech mechanism: Horizontal sliding block

10.5cm LG40 Gun
10.5cm Leichtgeshuutz 40, LG 2/Kp
Designed by Krupp, the 10.5 cm LG40 was essentially an enlarged version of the 7.5cm LG40 gun. It was made in two versions, the LG 40/1 with an alloy mount and LG 40/2 with a steel mount.
The LG40 was introduced into service in 1943 and was basically a scaled up version of the 7.5cm LG40, utilising the same principles for firing. It was placed on a new box trail that could be fitted with a gun shield when required.
The 10.5cm LG40 could be dropped in four containers and also fitted easily into transport aircraft such as the JU-52. It could also be dropped whole by parachute secured in a tubular framework.
The LG40 was also used by other light troops such as Gebirgsjäger as it made a good pack weapon. The weapon and carriage was designed for rapid dismantling and assembly.
Specifications:
Calibre: 10.5cm
Length of gun: 1902mm
Length of bore: 1380mm (L13)
Breech mechanism: Recoilless Rifle
