Turned metal barrels – a quick upgrade for your model

Replacing plastic barrels with turned metal parts is one of the simplest ways to raise the realism of a warship model. Metal barrels have a perfectly round cross-section and crisp, thin muzzles that are hard to reproduce in injection-moulded plastic.

For assembly we suggest cyanoacrylate glue, which bonds metal to plastic well. It is worth cleaning and degreasing the parts before fitting.

The 76.2 mm (3-inch) gun was used by the US Navy both as a dual-purpose and an anti-aircraft weapon. It was fitted on many classes of ships, from escort vessels to larger warships. In the anti-aircraft role it engaged aircraft at medium altitudes.
