I am off my game..I can't find a metal barrel for my trumpeteer 2s1 (no 05571)

[Steven]

Hello chaps
I got the trumpeteer 2S1 122mm SP Howitzer "Gvozdika" (kit no 05571) and it is a nice enough kit but lacking a metal gun barrel Scalemates tell me that Model Point and Barrel Depot have made 1/35 metal barrels for some older kit versions of the 2S1 but I can't source either - are any available ifom European dealers - or at all?

Steven,

Cannot find anyone that keeps Barrel Depot - nearest match to this barrel is the Aber 35 L-298,
122 mm metal barrel for SU-154-22, set also includes a co-ax machine gun barrel.
But you may have to perform a bit of scratch-duggery to get an exact match/fit.
[Kit part D36 & D37 may have to be altered].
