§§- Canon de campagne Americain de 4.7 pouces mle 1906 aux USA - Danvers - US Army National Guard (Massachusetts)

De la part de Bill Ricker :

Bonjour !

I found another that is not in any of the lists, yours or elsewhere.

A newly reactivated Field Artillery "Battery" (Company) in the US Army National Guard (Massachusetts) has a 4.7" gun out front of their Armory.

SITE: MA NG Armory, 2 Armory Rd, Danvers, MA 01923 42.568588, -70.975547
Gun : 4.7 inch M1906M1
- Looks like it says "Northwestern Ordnance Co", which seems to be a normal phrase per others.
- No. 5?6 (?)
- but much too much paint!  Number are hard to read! Even with CSI:ENHANCE mode.
  (  you'll see i resorted 'sepia' to remove paint color clash  )

Carriage: on Model of 1906 carriage, No. 603, Studebaker Corp, 1918

(Breach with handle is tack-welded shut, not disfigured by demilitarization. That's nice.)

( Unclear to me if 1906M1 is what you call the original (it's first modification in the design by nomenclature) or what you call the 1917.)
