The Japanese Type 96 25mm gun is most well known as an anti-aircraft (AA) mount, appearing in single, twin, and triple gun mounts. It served the role of a medium AA mount on virtually ever ship in the IJN during WW 2. The gun was also used ashore, where is also served as a dual purpose AA gun with anti-armor capabilites.

Newcomer Master Model from Poland has released a set of turned brass 25mm barrels. This set of 20 barrels has grooves cut in to simulate the recoil spring of the 25mm, as well as the flared muzzle- and all this in 1/350! The barrels come well packaged with card stiffener in the main bag and a page of printed instructions.
