 Subject:  Need some barrel help...List thread.  
  
 Date:  Jun 10, 2004
 From:  P. Campbell 
I need some help guys, so I'm going to term it from a research point of view.

Paul, I apologise if this seems out of place, but I hope you can see the 'angle' on this research, and why I placed it here.

I need a replacement barrel for my 1/16 Kirin Panzerbuchse. I'm sure no-one makes one, and having someone custom it will hurt my pocket, bigtime. So I thought why not try to find a 1/35 match to it... So here is the specs as if this was a 1:1 (if someone's already done this, please short-cut me!)

As a 1:1 barrel, it would be 2.975 metres long, 210 mm diameter at the aft end, quickly tapering to 175mm at 420mm out, then a slow taper to 123mm diameter at muzzle end.

Now as this barrel is cast in two sections in the kit, and only the outer section is damaged, the other set of specs are as such: 1.645 metres long, 158mm diameter with a slow taper to 123mm diameter at muzzle end.

Does anyone know of a barrel that fits these specifications?
