The quality of the machining has to be seen to be appreciated........these are amazingly detailed and of the highest quality.  This set includes 6 turned brass barrels. It is very simple to use on your model, and makes it extremely realistic. Simply cut off the original plastic barrel and drill a hole in the remaining parts and insert the metal barrel using Cyanoacrylate adhesives.

These brass barrels will let you really improve the detail on the 6 gun barrels on your next 1/72 F6F-5 Hellcat. 

You can purchase these and other fine detail items directly from the Master website. 

I would like to thank Master for providing me with this product sample.  Visit their website for more finely crafted detail items in a variety of scales.
