Default RE: Tiger in progress

Very nice Tiger! It looks very battle-hardened. After I painted my Tiger I metal barrel it was a tight fit and it was rubbing slightly moving through the mantlet tube (not sure of the technical term for that tube), so I looked inside and noticed a small mold line towards the front end of the tube where the barrel slides in. I sanded the mold line until it was almost completely gone and the barrel has been sliding smoothly ever since.
