| Notes | The 76.2mm M.1902 was a divisional gun which first entered service early in the twentieth century. It was the main light field gun and was issued to artillery regiments. It was first used in action during the Russo-Japanese war and later in world war one. It was kept in production until 1931, when it was modernised, but over two thousand M.1902s remained in service at the start of world war two along with large stocks of ammunition. |
