Refine muzzle shape with a metal replacement barrel

The Tamiya 89636 - 1/35 Russian T55A Metal Gun Barrel is produced to give a more defined muzzle and improved silhouette on 1/35 scale T55A builds. It offers a tidy solution for builders who want to replace the kit plastic barrel with a crisper metal alternative.

Carefully dimensioned to suit Tamiya's military range, this barrel fits the standard mounting points and helps the finished model stand out in group displays or solo showcases. It is a popular small upgrade for scale armour hobbyists.

Do I need special tools to fit this barrel?

Basic modelling tools such as a hobby knife, fine files and tweezers are usually enough. A pin vise and small drill bits help for precision seating if required.

Will the metal barrel affect weight balance?

The weight increase is minimal at this scale and will not noticeably change static balance, though it will feel firmer at the gun end.

How do I prevent paint chipping on the metal?

Use a dedicated metal primer and allow proper cure time before topcoating. Light sanding between primer and topcoat improves adhesion.
