Which Barrels?
Can any of you more experienced guy please point me to the correct metal BB barrel for both the Mato M4A1 and for a Firefly using the HL Sherman turret? Everything I will be planning will be a British Sherman of one type of another and having finished my Sherman IIa, that original Mato 76mm gun just doesn't do it for me. A straight swop over would be OK, but I expect to do a little work with them. Thanks in advance guys.
Re: Which Barrels?
If you want a firefly you'd need to change the turret as well.
The barrel is available from forgebear bb or ir version.

Re: Which Barrels?
I have built a 1C already, but passed it on. The only flop on it was the barrel and I need to get it right this time. The move up to 1/16th R/C is still a learning curve for me. I've bought a lot of parts tonight for the new firefly project, but I need to get the correct BB barrel. I think my IIa would benefit from a metal replacement too.

Re: Which Barrels?
I do know of Dave's items, but I'm looking for a direct replacement for the original 105mm BB barrel with the HL turret, and a direct replacement for the Mato BB barrel. I'm relatively new to R/C and the last time, I got a Firefly barrel it didn't fit, so there was a lot of work to do before it fitted the HL BB unit (and then it didn't line up!) 
The learning curve can be slow on occasion
