I just noticed that the Russian gun is a 6-24 in the old 1914 game and a 8-24 in Fall of Empires. Could someone with the new release of 1914 tell me if there are new pieces, and if so, is the 76.2mm an 6 or 8? Thanks.

Still a 6-24 in 1914 and 8-24 in FoE

That is a significant ambiguity. It makes a column shift in all cases.

Could they represent the different 7.62mm guns maybe?

Possibly, but APL doesn't usually have distinction on that level. Consider that the Soviet 76.2mm counter represents 4 different gun types through the game system. The Crusader tank counter is 2-3 versions of the same same take, plus the Coventer. How many versions of the M4 are covered by 2 counters?
I think APL made a game change and didn't tell anyone. Elsewise, we a difference with distinction, which is worse than a distinction without a difference.
