This page is really incomplete, it misses a lot of country's like: The Netherlands, Brazil, Argentinia, Turkey, China, etc. Stuart (talk) 10:09, 12 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

The Netherlands, Brazil & Argentinia has, or at least have not had any companies producing any naval guns to my knowledge? All naval guns used by them has been imported or possibly license built.

As for china they have also mainly used imported guns from around the world during the 1900's and only started designing their own naval guns at the end of that century. But even then its hard to find information online as they use their own designations for all their weapons which makes it hard to distinguish their original weapons from for example soviet designs not to mention that a lot of their naval guns are further developments of soviet and other nations designs.

If you feel like the list misses a lot of guns from the above mentioned nation then be our guest and add them.--Blockhaj (talk) 10:41, 13 October 2018 (UTC)Reply

"country of origin"

Latest comment: 4 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

There are two 14" guns where the country of origin is given as UK/Chile and UK/Japan. Both seem to be UK-manufactured (EOC and Vickers), for the Chilean and Japanese navies, so should country of origin be changed to just the UK? (A column for navies operating the guns would be of interest, but I guess it would be unreliable and unwieldy for the smaller calibres, especially those used by armed merchantmen.)
