WW2..but not like we know it.

It's the sound which gets ya the most..then when the stick has done its job the strangest thing is how quite it is...very weird.

Not strange or weird at all, your ears have suffered significant trauma & the nerves are in shock, so you can't hear anything below a certain decibel level.

Not at a kilometer away Guy..ya don't get that at that range..but still it's dead quite..we cam hear each other fine..it's there's no sounds..birds ..insects ..wind..then slowly it returns ..it's probably the shock which moves thru the ground which scares the wild life .

You'd be surprised.

The wildlife would definitely go to ground & keep quiet for some time.

However, things like the wind are probably below the volume & frequency thresholds that your nerves have blocked for their own protection - it's not an all-or-nothing scenario, your brain (& by extension your nerves) know that you still need to hear, so it blocks those ranges being effected by the potentially damaging noise(s) but leaves you able to hear in others (it's a primal survival thing).

Yup that makes sense 
Most of the time we'd notice the silence and if the bad guys start shooting again we tend to forget about it remarkably fast

It even elevates Is this the German equivalent to the M40 GMC, with the usual "Anything they can do, we can do bigger"?

Hahaha..it's typical German of the time..big..overly engineered and cool 😉
Even tho this might be a alternative reality-based diorama it's seems the Germans suffered the same fate 😄
As for the elevation..I have a annoying habit of making my models function..mate it's a PITA.

"Louder than God's revolver & twice as shiny!"

This build brings this quote from Dr Deathdefying (a radio DJ) from the Bethesda game Fallout: New Vegas (& used by My Chemical Romance on one of their albums) to mind every time I see it!
