jdiven Posted July 19, 2015 Share #1 Posted July 19, 2015 Has anyone who is or has built Model Shipways Rattlesnake replaced the supplied cannons with another supplier. I am looking at Syren 29.75mm one which should be very close to the original 27mm ones. I am on my second attempt to relace half of the originals, but the first replacements are just as bad. Thanks to all for your input Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillLib Posted July 20, 2015 Share #2 Posted July 20, 2015 I bought replacements. Amati 28 mm. I liked them much better than the kit supplied guns. yvesvidal and Canute 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuntherMT Posted July 20, 2015 Share #3 Posted July 20, 2015 I haven't done the Rattlesnake, but I did replace the kit cannons with ones from Chuck (Syren). The size is different than the ones you will be using, but otherwise I believe that they are identical, and they are fantastic. I chemically blackened the brass.
