Well, the most obvious candidate is the 7,5 cm Gebirgskanone Krupp M.04 L/14. This particular gun was used by the Turks and the Bulgarians.

What are the dimensions of the cartridge case? Because if it is either Turkish or Bulgarian, it should be 75x117.5mmR90

Another, less likely possibility is the Dutch Navy 7,5cm Krupp L/13 landing gun, which uses a 75X169mmR90 cartridge.
