Hi,

I've been looking at the drawings I have for 2552 and when I rebuild the superstructure will reinstate the domes that housed the machine guns at the front.  I seem to remember reading somewhere that they were twin Browning 50 cals, does anyone know if this is the case or if not what they are?

Thanks in advance

Oh yes, thinking ahead, already looking at paints for example.  Once the woodwork starts I'll need to prime and want to stick to the one paint manufacturer so that everything will be compatible.  As you know if you are not working on a boat then you are constantly thinking about it :)
