Question about 5"/25 guns
Posted by bondoman on Monday, March 3, 2008 12:21 AM

I think the USS San Francisco carried ten 5"/25 guns. The Trumpeter kit has open mount guns, but there was a comment in a previous thread that they were not accurate.

I can't find a photo of such a gun.

L'arsenal sells a 5"/38.

Is this making sense, and if so, what is a source for these cannons, if the kits are not accurate(?).

Oh, by the way I have an open order to WEM for the 5-N, 20-B and the 1.1"'s. $$$ for sure including the order to TMW, but this is going to be one of my two ships in 2008, the T-2 is the other. So any info, ummm, asap would be great.

Waterline is the plan.
