About product

B-17 Flying Fortress machine gun barrels 1:48 (Quickboost)

This is an aftermarket accessory in cast resin by the Quickboost brand, made by the Czech company Aires. It is not a kit but a set of accurately cast defensive machine gun barrels intended to replace the plastic parts of the base kit of the four-engine B-17 Flying Fortress bomber in 1:48 scale.

The real subject

The Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress was an American heavy bomber that became a symbol of daylight strategic bombing in the Second World War. Its heavy defensive armament of machine guns at a number of positions is a characteristic feature on which it pays to pay attention even to the small details of the barrels.

Usage tips

First wash the barrels to remove mold release residue, cut them off the casting blocks carefully and clean them up. They are bonded with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Protect your airways when sanding resin. The thin castings have a more faithful profile than the plastic parts, so handle them carefully.

Who it is for

  • Modelers building the B-17 Flying Fortress in 1:48 scale
  • Anyone after more faithful defensive barrels
  • Those who want to replace the simplified plastic parts

The accessory is supplied as unpainted resin castings. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package.
