Master SM-350-001 German 38cm (15in) SKC/34 barrels (8psc) – set of aluminum barrels in 1:350 scale

The Master SM-350-001 German 38cm (15in) SKC/34 barrels (8psc) set is a high-quality accessory designed for 1:350 scale ship models, particularly for the legendary Kriegsmarine battleships: Bismarck and Tirpitz. These two German warships were among the largest and most powerfully armed vessels of World War II, and their main armament consisted of 38 cm SKC/34 guns, which are faithfully replicated by these offered barrels.

Historical application:
The 38cm SKC/34 guns were used exclusively on German battleships of the Bismarck and Tirpitz class, which took part in combat operations in the Atlantic and the North Sea during World War II (1940–1944). It was from these barrels that the salvos were fired that sank the British battlecruiser HMS Hood, which became one of the most famous episodes of naval warfare.

Product features:

• Scale: 1:350
• Country of original use: Germany (Kriegsmarine)
• Period of use: World War II
• Barrel material: precisely machined aluminum
• The set includes 8 barrels – a full set for the main artillery of a single ship
• Premium quality product: barrels are perfectly smooth, with correct profile and length, significantly surpassing the quality of original plastic elements
• Application: upgrading plastic ship model kits (e.g. by Tamiya, Revell, Trumpeter)
• Very easy assembly: simply cut off the plastic barrel, drill a hole, and glue in the metal part using cyanoacrylate adhesive

Intended use and recommendations:
This product is recommended for both intermediate and advanced ship modelers wishing to raise the realism of their replicas to the level of professional contest dioramas. Master barrels are an excellent choice for anyone who values authenticity, durability, and perfection of detail, which cannot be achieved with plastic parts.
