Default As a matter of fact.......

Hello Art

There WAS a 95mm field gun.

It was a real hodge-podge; 3.7" AA barrel, 6-pdr cradle, 25-pdr breech etc

It all came about because 'someone' thought the British needed an infantry gun, just like the Russians and Germans and Americans.

It did not work!
