This latest release from Master includes a 1/32 M61 A1 Vulcan - Six-barrelled rotary 20mm cannon - turned barrels with etched barrel clamps machined out of brass.  These were used on most of the modern US aircraft including the F-104, F-105, F-14, F-15, F-16, F-18 and others.

The quality of the machining has to be seen to be appreciated........these are amazingly detailed and of the highest quality.  The set includes turned brass barrels and etched barrel clamps. It is very simple to use on your model, and makes it extremely realistic. Simply cut off the original plastic gun and drill a hole in the remaining parts and insert the metal barrel using Cyanoacrylate adhesives.

You can purchase these and other fine detail items directly from the Master website.   

The multi barreled gun is nothing short of a masterpiece and would be the ultimate replacement for the kit gun on your modern US jet. 

I would like to thank Master for providing me with this review sample.  Visit their website for more finely crafted detail items in a variety of scales.
