Hi, I had the same issue with HMS Clyde 30mm Gun, I ended up making it from scratch and casing it as I needed one for a mine hunter. However I did find SIRMAR fittings do 1/48 th 30 mm mount & 40mm mount.

the shipways was the one i was going to get and they say they cannot make it for some reason but its still listed and the price has gone up 15 odd dollars waiting to hear back from them but the replies i get from them dont make alot of sence


i had looked on the sirmar site before i guess i didnt have my browser open far enough as it was cutting off the weapons tab have now emailed him

any chance you still have the mould for your scrath built one as it seems to suit my project better ?
