View Full Version : 8,8 cm FLAK 6306
8,8 cm Heeres FLAK Code ?
Glaube das es eine 8,8 cm flakhülse aus WK1 (6306) ist die zur patronenhülse (6347) der 8,8 cm Flak 18 umgeformt worden ist.
Deswegen erlängert und aufgeweitet.
Aber vielleicht weiss jemand da näheres.
Hab auch so eine und ich denke das selbe wie du
Umgebaut von 1WK auf 2WK
Is longer of case 560 or 570 mm ?:p
6306 and 6347 ?, some years ago, we have this discussion in ecra magazine
A menber found a lot blasted of this case 6306 in old german stock in france..
headstamp : 6306 P B Waa40
so, ecra menber's réponse are:
Verlang = verlangt (more long)
P = Polte Armatürenfabrik (little p was used just after1940/41)
B = code for year of building (Reichwehr since 1929 using this " years" code, this pratic and continued circa 1935;
hier B is for 1930)
One person has found one case for 3.7 pak (6331) with exactly the same headstamp (P B waa40)
One other menber says it's possible one WW1 flak gun using 6306 (560 mm long case) was rebored in 570 mm long (verlangt) before 6347 adoption ( one case long 560 mm from March 1918 was found...)
