120 mm Shneider-Canet M1897 long gun was a heavy artillery piece manufactured by the French company Schneider-Creusot. It was a slow firing gun without a recoil mechanism but with significant range and weight of the shell. Serbia ordered 17 pieces in 1897. However only 16 were delivered in 1902. Serbia entered the First Balkan war with 15 pieces (6 batteries) since one gun was destroyed during the exercises before the war.
