How detailed are the ABER parts?

ABER parts are finely etched to add realistic surface fittings and thin brackets that plastic cannot replicate, enhancing scale authenticity.

Do I need glue for the metal barrel?

Specialist superglues or epoxy are commonly used to secure metal barrels; ensure alignment before final bonding for a straight bore line.

What paints work best on the photo-etched parts?

Prime the etched brass with a metal primer, then use thin coats of acrylic or enamel to match the surrounding painted surfaces and to avoid obscuring detail.
