These model turrets were designed from official drawings of the real turrets.  They are NOT 3D-printed copies of any plastic or resin kits' parts therefore they may be sized and shaped differently than the parts in your plastic or resin kit.  Some adjustment to your kit's parts or other aftermarket sets such as photo-etch may be needed for best fit.

Note: the barrels are very thin and fragile.  Caution is recommended when removing them from shipping box, the sprue and during handling.
