About product

F6F-3/5 Hellcat machine gun barrels 1:72 (Quickboost)

A resin detail part, not an airplane kit. These resin machine gun barrels replace the plastic parts from the base kit of the American F6F Hellcat carrier fighter in the -3 and -5 versions in 1:72 scale. Thin, straight castings protruding from the leading edge of the wing look more faithful than the thicker plastic weapons from the box.

The real subject and what the part is for

The Grumman F6F Hellcat was an American carrier fighter of the Second World War with a Pratt & Whitney R-2800 radial engine. The standard armament was six 12.7 mm heavy machine guns mounted in the wing. The muzzles on the leading edge are a small but conspicuous detail where it pays to reach for a finer, more accurate rendering.

Usage tips

  • Wash the parts free of mold release residue in lukewarm soapy water
  • Cut off the casting blocks and clean up the surfaces with respiratory protection
  • Glue with cyanoacrylate glue; cement for plastic will not hold on resin
  • Set the barrels straight and symmetrically, ideally after painting the wing

Who the part is for

  • For builders of the F6F Hellcat fighter in 1:72 scale
  • For modelers who want thinner, straight machine gun barrels
  • For more advanced modelers with resin experience

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

FAQ

No. These are resin replacement barrels that complete and refine a Hellcat kit you already own in 1:72 scale.

Ideally after painting the wing, so that the small parts are not damaged during handling.

Use cyanoacrylate glue. Cement for plastic will not hold on resin.
