B17 guns used by the Germans as anti-aircraft guns - Luftwaffe and Allied Air Forces Discussion Forum

I am not sure in which category I must post this, but it is related to the Germans en related to aircraft.

The Germans salvaged guns from crashed B-17's and used them as anti-aircraft guns.

As almost any captured equipment was given a German designation, does anyone know which designation these anti-aircraft guns were given ?
