Question Here!!
Were the barrels of german antitank and anitaircraft guns painted or left a natural finish?
I am doing the tamiya pak 34/35. It appears to have a painted barrel with the breech left a metal finish.
I am also building the italerai flak 43. The instruction sheet appears to show a painted barrel. The artwork on the box shows a metal finish.
So far my research has been inconclusive on these two weapons.
