1/6 DKM Single 20mm Flak C30 Kit

1/6 DKM Single 20mm Flak C/30 Kit: The Heavyweight of Naval Defense

Bring the mechanical grit of the Atlantic war to your collection with the meticulously engineered 1/6 Scale DKM Single 20mm Flak C/30. As the foundational light anti-aircraft defense for the German Navy, the 2 cm/65 (0.79") C/30 was a ubiquitous sight on everything from Schnellboote and U-Boote to heavy cruisers. At this massive 1/6 scale, this kit transcends traditional modeling, offering a high-fidelity reconstruction of historical ordnance that serves as an imposing centerpiece for 12-inch figure displays and large-format maritime archives.

Engineering Precision & Tactical Fidelity

High-Fidelity Mechanical Detail: At 1/6 scale, every technical nuance of German weaponry is fully realized. This kit captures the C/30’s architecture with exquisite fidelity, featuring accurately rendered cooling ribs on the heavy barrel, the complex breech-block mechanism, and specialized naval sighting optics. Every structural line is rendered with architectural sharpness, transforming your gun station into a functional-looking combat position.

Historically Accurate Configuration: Meticulously researched from original Kriegsmarine technical manuals to ensure an authentic building experience. This assembly includes:

• The 2cm/65 Barrel & Cradle: Precision-scaled with the correct taper and breech linkages essential for 1/6 scale realism.
• Specialized Naval Pedestal: Captures the rugged, industrial mounting hardware used to secure the weapon against the roll of the sea.
• Gunner's Controls: Detailed with the mechanical traverse and elevation handwheels used by crews to track Allied aircraft.

Premium Material: Tough Resin White

To ensure this large-scale weapon set meets the structural demands of a 12-inch scale display, it is crafted from High-detail Resin White, offering an industrial-grade foundation:

• Enhanced Durability: Known for its superior strength and resilience, this material ensures the long barrel and fine control levers remain rigid and resistant to snapping during handling.
• Professional Smooth Finish: Provides an ultra-smooth, non-porous surface that drastically reduces preparation time, allowing you to move straight to priming.
• Dimensional Stability: The "Tough" formulation is specifically chosen to maintain tight tolerances across the assembly, ensuring the moving parts fit with surgical accuracy.

Key Features & Specifications

• Accurate 1/6 Scale: A massive and visually impactful model, perfectly proportioned for 1/6 scale (12-inch) naval figures.
• Hollowed Engineering: Expertly designed to reduce material weight while maintaining a robust, "heavy steel" appearance.
• Unpainted Finish: Provides a blank canvas for your artistic vision. Recreate the iconic Dunkelgrau 51 or a weathered "sea-battered" finish.
• Museum-Grade Detail: Ideal for high-stakes dioramas where mechanical accuracy and historical realism are paramount.

A Canvas for Naval Artistry

Unpainted for Total Customization: Arriving in its raw High-detail Resin White finish, the C/30 Flak serves as the ultimate starting point for advanced weathering:

• The "Atlantic Raider" Look: Apply a base of dark grey with heavy salt-fading. The smooth resin surface is ideal for holding oil-washes to define the intricate breech mechanism and sightings.
• Realistic Weathering: The 1/6 scale is the ideal playground for detailing. Apply light metallic "scuffing" on the operator handles and subtle rust-streaks near the mounting bolts to achieve high levels of authenticity and realism.
