Cannone da 47/32 M35 Anti-Tank Gun

This Italian-built weapon was a licence built copy of the Austrian Böhler anti-tank Gun. First produced in 1935, the 47 mm Böhler was one of the weapons used by both sides during the Second World War, serving with Germans, Soviet, Romanian, and Dutch forces, among others. Mountain troops used this gun because it was portable, and could be easily broken down into smaller components for transport on foot.
