| Subject: | King Tiger with bare steel gun? | |

In a recent issue of a national (in USA) modeling magazine there is an article and nice build of a 1/72 Tiger 2. What interest me is that the 8.8-cm KwK gun is finished in a shiney bare steel finish. No primer paint nor rust.
I have seen tank guns that appear to be in red-brown primer, but never in unpainted bare steel. It looks cool but is this historically accurate? It seems that it should at least have some rusting?
