About product

Defiant Mk.I Gun Barrels 1:72 (Quickboost)

A set of accurately cast resin barrels for 7.7 mm Browning machine guns for the British Boulton Paul Defiant Mk.I turret fighter in 1:72 scale. It is an aftermarket detail part that replaces the coarser or thick-walled plastic barrels from a base kit, not a stand-alone aircraft model.

The real subject

The Boulton Paul Defiant was a British two-seat fighter of the Second World War whose entire offensive armament was concentrated in a rotating dorsal gun turret with four 7.7 mm machine guns. It was powered by a Rolls-Royce Merlin V12 engine. In daytime combat it proved vulnerable, but it found its place as a night fighter.

Tips for use and fitting

Resin parts call for more careful work than plastic: first wash the mold release residue off them, separate them carefully from the casting block and glue them with super glue (cyanoacrylate). Protect your airways when sanding and cutting small parts. Apply a primer before painting. The thin barrels are fragile, so separate them carefully; the guns come into their own once painted in a metal shade with the muzzles brought out finely.

Who the part is for

  • Modelers building the Boulton Paul Defiant Mk.I in 1:72 scale
  • Anyone after more delicate barrels than a plastic kit offers
  • Builders who want to bring out the dorsal gun turret
  • Collectors of British fighter hardware of the Second World War

The part is supplied as a resin accessory, unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and a base kit are not included in the package unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is a resin detail part, that is an aftermarket accessory. The base kit has to be obtained separately.

The part is shaped for the British Boulton Paul Defiant Mk.I turret fighter in 1:72 scale. It is best to check the exact fit in a particular kit dry, because what the manufacturers offer differs.

Wash it free of mold release agent, separate it from the casting block and glue it with super glue. Protect your airways when sanding. The work is a little more demanding than with plastic.
