Thanks Dwight. From your Treaty info it sounds like the Finns would have received 7.65mm guns in the 1923 time frame. I have a couple of questions: It would seem that given "Allied Powers" approval, there could have been 9mm guns produced for Finland (not saying they were, just posing the question); The use of square brackets "[ ]" usually indicates addition of words not found in the original text but inferred by context, so the question is: who added the "shall be strictly prohibited" to Article 170?
