I ordered a set of searchlights for a WWII destroyer I am working on, and they are real jewels! I have ordered other parts and they are excellent also.
As I move to the next part of the model, I check the listing of pieces available and order whatever is available. I will definitely order from this supplier again!
Great replacement for the kit fairwater from the Trumpeter kit. While I don’t have measurements of the real Gato, it just looks proportionally better being taller and shorter front to back. The only idiosyncrasy for me is the rail is a bit thick and out of scale. It also visually gets in the way if you pair it with DiStefano’s very nice Bofors mount. Very pleased with the purchase!
I purchased this to replace the guns of a kit I am converting to RC, have done one before and was not happy with the kits guns due to how fragile they seemed and difficult to assemble…these look much more stable for my use …and will be most likely purchasing more for future builds if they prove to be as good as they look …
