Precision metal detail for your M40 model

The Tamiya 12670 1/35 US M40 Metal Gun Barrel is aimed at modellers who want enhanced authenticity on the U.S. Self-Propelled Gun M40 (Item 35351). The turned aluminium barrel includes visible rifling at the tip to add convincing scale realism to the muzzle.

What the set contains

This detail set includes the 196mm aluminium barrel plus ten brass projectiles reproduced with fine surface detail. Decals are supplied to recreate the markings on each round so your display model looks consistent and accurate.

Practical finishing notes

For a durable finish, prime metal parts with Tamiya metal surface primer before painting. The metal components contribute a satisfying heft and help the model sit true on display. Standard modelling glue and paint are needed for assembly; work slowly with small tools when installing the rounds.

  • Assembly: Requires glue and paint
The Tamiya 12670 barrel is a turned aluminium part featuring rifling detail at the muzzle. Check the kit instructions for integration with Item 35351 to confirm the visual result you want.
Yes. Light washes, gentle drybrushing, and thin layers of matte varnish can age the brass without obscuring the decal markings.
Use cyanoacrylate (super glue) or epoxy for stronger metal-to-plastic bonds. Standard polystyrene cement will not bond aluminium securely.
