Turned metal barrels – a quick upgrade for your model

Replacing the plastic barrels with turned metal ones, supplemented by the mount shields, improves the look of the small anti-aircraft guns that are difficult to reproduce faithfully in plastic. It is a convenient way to raise the finish level of the model.

For assembling the barrels and shields it is worth considering cyanoacrylate glue, which bonds the metal parts to plastic well.
