Turned metal barrels – a quick model upgrade

Replacing plastic barrels with turned metal ones is one of the simplest ways to raise the realism of a ship model. The metal finish gives a crisp, even muzzle edge that is hard to achieve on injection-moulded parts. Cyanoacrylate glue works well for bonding metal to plastic during assembly.
