Who makes turned brass barrels?
Posted by emo07 on Friday, March 7, 2008 4:03 PM

Hi all,

I would like to know which companies make the turned brass barrels for 1/350 scale battleships, specifically, the USS North Carolina. I bought a set of white metal barrels from Yankee Modelworks and I am not too happy with them. Thanks,

Not sure if they are making them yet, but probably will if you ask.  the outfit is called 'Voyager models', and i have just ordered a set of barrels and turrets for a 1/350 Takao.  Website is at:

BMK makes a fine set of 16"/45 barrels, as well as 5"/38 barrels, for the Trumpeter kit. We stock them.
