Dear Gulio,
Mr Bergman, the builder of a fantasticly detailed type IX-c is sending me the plans. As far as I understand these are the original plans of Kohl and Niestle but I will know that for sure if the arrive.
Bear in mind that the 8,8 and 10,5 on subs were totally different than there land counterparts. The "Leichte Feldhaubitze 18" you refer to is not at all the same as the subs weapon. The only thing in common was the caliber of the rounds and there stops all the semelarety. To my recallection the LeFH18 had also a muzzle brake wich is not seen on the barrel of the 8,8 or 10,5 and in case of the 10,5 the barrel is much shorter than the one used on subs.
You will be better off buying an Accurate-armour 8,8 and changing the barrel with a aluminium/brass one turned on a lathe.
I'll keep in tuch!
Kind regards
