Application and Assembly
The ABER 1/72 MG-34 metal barrels are an ideal choice for modelers looking to enhance the realism of their models by replacing less detailed or damaged plastic parts. Their primary application is to upgrade plastic military vehicle models that utilized the MG-34 machine gun as primary or auxiliary armament.
For a durable bond between metal parts and the model, as well as among themselves, the use of specialized cyanoacrylate (CA) glue is recommended. For more advanced modelers, there is also the option of joining metal components using a soldering iron, which provides exceptionally strong and durable connections.
Compatibility and Enhancements
This set is compatible with a wide range of 1/72 scale plastic military vehicle models that feature the MG-34 machine gun in their armament. For comprehensive model enhancement, this barrel set can be successfully combined with other modeling accessories. ABER offers a wide range of dedicated photo-etched parts, metal tow cables, and figures, which complement and enrich the appearance of any model, allowing for the creation of a complete and detailed miniature.
