Dear friends & modellers!
I have for sale 2 new kits - WWI Russian Siege Gun Model 1877 Full Resin kit in 2 versions:
- WWI Russian 6" Siege Gun Model 1877 Resin kit 1/35 scale
- WWI Russian 42-line (106.7mm) Siege Gun Model 1877 Resin kit 1/35 scale


WWI Russian 6-inch siege gun model 1877 was a Russian 152.4 mm heavy siege gun. The gun was produced by Obukhov Steel Works in Saint Petersburg. It was utilized in Russo-Japanese War, World War I, Russian Civil War and some conflicts of the early 20th century where former parts of Russian empire were involved.

WWI Russian 42-line siege gun M1877 was a siege gun used by the Russian Imperial Army in late 19th and early 20th centuries.  The gun saw action in the Russo-Japanese War like in the defense of the Nanshan Hill during the battle of Nanshan. The Japanese Army successfully attacked the hill and captured several 42-line siege guns. Due to the lack of heavy artillery the Japanese took the guns in service during the rest of the conflict.

Montenegro used a few guns of this type up to World War I and Finland used weapons of this type until the World War II Era. Many of the 42-line siege guns were captured by the Imperial German Army and reissued to nine Landwehr Foot Artillery Battalions, equipping 22 Batteries. Etc.
