Hi,
Does anyone have a picture and/or a cross sectional drawing with some dimensions of the Russian WWII 107mm artillery shell, known to the Germans as 10,7cm Sprgr 351 (r) please?
I only have the drawing below and think I might have the bottom part of a blown up sample .
Thanks,

107-mm cannon model 1913 year??? What is it?I have a Finnish WW2 manual shoving 6 different 107mm shells for Russian model 1910 and 1913 field guns. Dimensions are well detailed. Any help to you?
My friend, I don`t know, who wrote your book, bur russian documents don`t know any cannon model 1913. Just model 1910 and 1930. And yes, first cannos were from France and other produced on plant in Putilovsk.My literature source says that model 1910 was a Schneider gun, supplied to Russia both from France and made locally by Putilov. A modified version was in France called 107 mm canon mle 10/12. It is said that Russians called this version model 13. Later on it was modified in France as model 10/12 S and later version as model 10/30. About differences I have no information. Also my source does not clearly specify which model designations were French and which Russian, however all guns in Finnish use came from Russia.
