Nice ´lil kit! I think i have to buy one for me. RB Barrels are great, arent they?

Great kit. I timed and I put it together in 3 hours. Only issue is barrel, flash suppressor to be exact, which can be easily, quickly and cheaply replaced with minimal work. And yes, RB Models make great barrels. I'd appreciate simple instruction about where which ring goes.

A quick word on accuracy. 3,7cm flak 37 was used in North Africa. However it was used in limited numbers and mostly to protect key infrastructure such as ports. Which is why there are few pictures of them from that theatre.

So I finished flak kit. Nice little kit, simple afternoon build. Comes together nicely, instructions are generally clear. Plenty of guides where correct placement of parts is crucial. No flash, few ejection marks. Replaced barrel with RB Models one which was pretty straightforward process, simply cut barrel from mount, drilled a hole and glued RB one. Good on Trumpeter to give you option of using PE shields or plastic ones. I opted for latter because former require quite a bit of bending and gluing/soldering, all of which is beyond my expertise level. But if you think you can tackle it you can...... Tires are one piece plastic, both tire itself and rim, so if that's an issue for you now you know. So overall a nice little kit that is not terribly expensive and builds nicely. Only issue is
