This latest release from Master features 1/48 Supermarine Spitfire late E wing or revised wing - Hispano 20mm & .50cal in fairings machined out of brass.

These were used on the Supermarine Spitfire late versions with E wing or in Spitfires with revised wing (e.g. Mk 21, Mk 22).

The quality of the machining has to be seen to be appreciated........these are amazingly detailed and of the highest quality.

This set includes turned brass barrels. It is very simple to use in Your model, and makes it extremely realistic. Simply cut off the original plastic barrel and drill a hole in the remaining plastic parts and insert the metal barrel using Cyanoacrylate adhesives.

You can purchase these and other fine detail items from the many retailers that carry their products.  A list of those retailers can be found on their website.   

The precision machining on these cannon barrels has to be seen to be appreciated.  These are the way to go if you are building a Supermarine Spitfire late E wing or revised wing that used the Hispano 20mm & .50cal in fairings
