                        ...Yes, dipping them in hot water and gently bending them should straighten them out just fine...

                        GENTLY is the key.

                        Good luck.

                        Hello to you all.

                        I have just received from Accurate Armour some resin 7.62 FN Mag guns, they look very nice; but; OH 'blimey' the barrels are bent. On all four of them!.

                        They are not bent by very much but they feel so brittle I am afraid to touch them.

                        So, would a dip in hot water make them pliable enough to straighten?

                        I just know some one will help as always...cheers....Kenny
