1:350 Set of 20 pcs 37 mm/54 Breda gun barrels for Italian Navy ships

A set of twenty 37 mm/54 Breda barrels in 1:350 - an Aber detail set

A turned metal detail set in 1:350 scale from Aber. It holds twenty faithful barrels for the 37 mm/54 Breda anti-aircraft gun, with which you replace the coarser plastic barrels on an Italian Navy warship model. It is not a ship kit but a fine metal accessory for more experienced modelers.

The real subject

The 37 mm/54 Breda was the standard light anti-aircraft gun of the Italian Navy, the Regia Marina, in the Second World War. It was mounted in twin and single mountings on battleships, cruisers and smaller units alike.

Usage tips

The turned metal barrels replace the kit's plastic parts and have a true profile and bore. Separate the parts carefully from the carrier fret, and bend any photo-etched extras on a metal surface. Degrease the metal and apply a primer for metals before painting; glue with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue).

Who the set is for

• Advanced modelers building Italian ships in 1:350 scale
• Anyone wanting to refine the anti-aircraft armament
• Builders who want to replace coarser plastic barrels with fine metal
• Lovers of finely detailed ship models

This is a metal accessory for a model, not a standalone ship kit. The base model, glue and paints are not included in the package.
