About product

P-39Q Airacobra machine gun barrels 1:48 (Aires Quickboost)

A resin detail part, not an airplane kit. The set brings precisely cast machine gun barrels for the American Bell P-39Q Airacobra fighter in 1:48 scale. It replaces the kit plastic barrels with thin, straight resin castings. The part is intended for more advanced modelers with resin experience.

What the part is for

The Airacobra had an unusual layout, with the engine amidships and the armament concentrated in the nose and in underwing gondolas, so the barrels are clearly visible on the model. Plastic barrels tend to be thick and slightly bent; the resin castings are straight, with a fine muzzle and a true diameter. Once fitted, the armament looks crisp and accurate.

Usage tips

  • Wash the parts in lukewarm soapy water to remove mold release residue
  • Cut off the casting blocks and sand the surfaces with respiratory protection
  • Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate)
  • Repaint the barrels in a metallic shade and seat them exactly as on the real aircraft

Who the part is for

  • For builders of the P-39Q Airacobra in 1:48 scale
  • For more advanced modelers with resin experience
  • For anyone who wants crisp, accurate armament

This is a resin detail accessory, not a model. The base kit, paints and glue are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. These are resin machine gun barrels that replace the plastic parts in your Airacobra kit. The base model has to be bought separately.

The resin barrels are straight, with a fine muzzle and a true diameter. Plastic ones tend to be thick and may be slightly bent.

It takes a little experience. Wash the parts to remove the mold release agent, cut them from the casting blocks and bond them with super glue. Sand with respiratory protection.
