I'll be watching ... She's looking very good at the moment, Mr. T ... Me I must save some money up for the barrel upgrade I found on the net ... I suspect you'll opt for brass barrels ... :captain

I have some, but they are for another kit. I have to admit I don't like the way Trumpeter has engineered the main battery assembly. I'm thinking I will need to adapt the metal barrels I have to this kit.

I'll look see at the company I found to see if there is a upgrade ... My USS Texas is a Trumpeter Kit and these look like they will fit ... But they may be for My Arizona ... I'll get back to you ... :captain

Yep, one needs alot of patience when doing ships. Especially these old Battle wagons! From the looks of the main battery, it's all 1 piece? :blink What werer they thinking?!? :smack
 
These metal barrels look better.
