Responsibility details are not available.
A turned metal gun barrel from the Polish manufacturer Aber in 1:35 scale, which replaces the plastic barrel of the German sIG 33 heavy infantry gun of 150 mm caliber. This is not a kit but a detail accessory for modelers who want an accurate barrel cylinder with no mold seam and with a faithfully drilled-out muzzle.
The sIG 33 heavy infantry gun, the schweres Infanteriegeschütz 33, of 150 mm caliber was the standard German weapon for direct fire support of infantry. What is characteristic is its very short barrel for such a large caliber, intended for heavy high-explosive shells at short and medium ranges. Besides the towed version, the sIG 33 was also mounted on self-propelled chassis, for example on the hull of the Pz.Kpfw. I light tank or on the Pz.Kpfw. 38(t) chassis in the Grille series of self-propelled guns. It is precisely the large caliber and the short barrel that make this gun such a rewarding modeling subject.
The turned metal barrel is fitted in place of the plastic part from the kit. Cut the plastic barrel off as close to the mantlet as possible, level the mating face and fit the metal part dry first so that you can check the axis and any misalignment. It is glued with cyanoacrylate glue (super glue) or with two-part epoxy; ordinary cement for plastic does not hold on metal. Degrease the metal carefully before painting and take it over with a primer intended for metal, otherwise the paint flakes off. The muzzle is drilled out, so there is no drilling or cleaning up of a mold seam to do.
This is an add-on detail set for modelers, not a kit. The model itself, glue and paints are not included in the package.
