Wrong gun

[edit]

This isn't a 10.5 cm SK L/45 gun from Königsberg, compare it to the gun here, which definitively is from the ship. Note for example, the built up portion of the gun is much more pronounced on the German gun, as opposed to on the British QF 4 inch gun, which is what this gun is. According to this editor's comment, who apparently has seen the guns in person, the gun in question is from HMS Pegasus, which was sunk by Königsberg and had her guns removed much like Königsberg.
