The weapon system is the 13cm K09. This example is missing the distinctive splinter shield which aides in quick indentification.

ah.... yes....

.. I hadn't seen the 2nd photo , and only glanced at the first ! It would appear the carraige is likely that of a K09, but the rohr, excepting the cast cradle slide, has all the similarities of the 15cm Ring Kanone. It may possibly be an early prototype before production models were given the conventional sliding breach block. We need imput from Arie Dijkhuis; I'll contact him for his views.
