Master AM-48-012 German aircraft machine gun MG 17 (7,92mm) barrels (2pcs) (1/48)

The Master AM-48-012 set is a high-quality modeling accessory that allows you to recreate the barrels of the German machine gun MG 17 (caliber 7.92 mm) in 1:48 scale. This model is designed for a wide range of German aircraft from the World War II era, such as the Messerschmitt Bf 109, Messerschmitt Bf 110, Focke-Wulf Fw 190, Junkers Ju 87, Ju 88, as well as many other Luftwaffe combat planes. The MG 17 machine gun was used in German aviation mainly during World War II – from 1937 to 1945, as a standard machine gun mounted on fighters and bombers in gun positions.

The set contains two precisely turned brass barrels featuring realistically rendered cooling holes (cooling jacket). Thanks to the use of professionally prepared metal, this product offers a level of detail and durability unmatched by plastic parts. Each barrel has been meticulously milled, resulting in an authentic appearance and scale-accurate detail. Assembly is simple: just cut off the original barrel from the model, drill a small hole, and glue in the metal barrel using cyanoacrylate (CA) glue.
