Some seriously sweet machined parts from Poland, RB Models.
From 75mm rifled Sherman barrels to the huge 17cm. Even 25mm Bushmaster barrels & muzzle breaks.
I ordered a 152mm ML-20S barrel so I'll trot out a review when it shows.

Got the barrels in.
Mind you, I don't have that much experience with turned barrels but the fact that the muzzle brakes screw on impressed me. The 122mm D-30 L38 barrel is 11 machined parts and 7 PE parts. Even the relatively simple barrel of the 17cm Kanone is 6 machined parts and a tiny piece of PE.

Who cares?!?!? They're cool! Those rifled turrets are just awesome.Mr. Badwrench wrote:So, what are you going to use these on?
Aside from using them for turrets, they'd make great greeblies of any kind.

.. and they are very nice.
Picked up a few items at a local Model Show.. the 1/35 bucket has 5 parts !
The BESA MG's for Brit tanks are just fantastic as are the 20mm Flak barrels.
heaps of niceness there... got a couple of barrels for kit bashing as well.
To be sure, to be sure

It's not a toy!.... it's an accurate scale representation of a craft that doesn't actually exist.
