The 10 cm Gebirgshaubitze M 8 was a mountain howitzer used by Austria-Hungary during World War I. It was the first Austrian howitzer to use a modern hydraulic variable-recoil system. It used the same ammunition as the earlier 10 cm Gebirgshaubitze M 99 which was shown to be accurate but lacked sufficient power to destroy bunkers during World War I. It had a gun shield. It could be mounted on a special sled carriage designated 10 cm M.
