Title: Austrian 8pdr 1866
Post by: maciek on 26 December 2022, 07:25:46 PM
A question.
Why there is no 8pdr gun in Austrian 1966 range ?

I assume you mean no 8pdr in the Austrian 1860s range?

This would be the M1863 8pdr gun for the position batteries?

Yes, sorry for the typo.
In 1866 4-pdr guns were assigned to infantry brigades, while 8pdr rifled pieces constituted the reserve artillery.
