Hi gents;
I think it may be about the time to take a very short intermission by posting my Snowberry pics ,though passionate exchange of opinions and comments are going on energetically....
The 4"gun mount platform is set with handrails as seen below as per the instruction manuals as usual;
It's very interesting for me to assemble this kind of plastic model ship as it goes very smoothly,securely and rapidly to the goal of sailing on the water.
I don't know if the projectiles are OK with this color....
By the way,the gun looks so short like my 1/6 US M4A3 Sherman tank's barrel....38cal/3"barrel...like a howitzer!
WW2 US naval guns seem to have adopted longer 50cal...50cal/3" ...50cal/16"for BB63 ...except 38cal/5" like a Sherman tank...
Merry Christmas to you all of model boaters.!!
Though I'm a Buddhist ...
