Turned metal barrels – a quick upgrade for your model

Replacing plastic barrels with turned metal parts is one of the easiest ways to raise the realism of a model. The barrels have even, thin walls and correctly reproduced muzzles, which is hard to achieve with plastic parts.

Cyanoacrylate glue works best for assembly, bonding metal to plastic securely.

About the ship – Graf Zeppelin:

The design called for a strong gun armament, including 150 mm and 105 mm guns. Graf Zeppelin remains one of the best-known unrealised projects of the Kriegsmarine.
