G'day Guys. After some clarification. 3 pics of Tiger main gun. 3 different Tigers. Pic 3 is from a late production. Given the end of the war drawing closer and the requirement to speed production, were the main guns manufactured as pic 3 to speed up production?

It's interesting to note that anything was possible in WW2 and that the internet has made these things easier to research.

Well I must say I'm surprised no-one has any opinion or information regarding the different tiger breeches.

hi ray

I was going to reply at first but thought someone would have jumped on it amazed no one replied either at a guess I would say that all later production built would have had the later breech only but when they first came into production I don't know if an early mid gun was damaged maybe it would be changed to the late type but I would think not easier to just stick with early mid round breech / late square breech

G'day Colin. Thanks. That's what I decided on too.

Hi Ray,

Only just seen your post whilst scanning through. I am surprised the Kent or Per haven't answer you question. Like Colin I am not sure, but would imagine that is was a replacement!
