At 194mm have these been cut down as I suspect ?
Maybe not ? It's not a very impressive case for an AT gun.
Bohler 47mm

Not cut down
These Bohler guns had different length cases depending on which country was using them

47x185R Switzerland and Poland
47x195R Italy
47x212R Latvia
47x227R Netherlands
47c235R Austria

China, Estonia and probably other countries used them too... i don't know case lengths for these
