Aber 350L-22 Set of 20 pcs QF 2-pdr 40 mm Mk.VIII Pom Pom barrels for Royal Navy ships (1/350)

The Aber 350L-22 set is a professional set of 20 QF 2-pdr 40 mm Mk.VIII "Pom Pom" barrels, dedicated to modelers building Royal Navy warships in 1/350 scale. This highly detailed product belongs to the category of metal aftermarket accessories designed for enhancing plastic model kits. The set includes 20 precisely machined barrels made from CNC-turned brass, guaranteeing the highest quality detail and durability.

The QF 2-pounder 40 mm Mk.VIII "Pom Pom" was a British anti-aircraft gun, widely used on Royal Navy vessels from the interwar period, throughout World War II, and into the early Cold War years. The famous "Pom Pom" could be found on battleships, cruisers, destroyers, and many other escort vessels. This weapon became notable during the Battle of the Atlantic and the Battle of Midway, protecting Allied ships from air attacks. The characteristic tasks of the QF 2-pdr included defense against dive bombers and torpedo bombers, and its versatility ensured the gun remained in service until the mid-20th century.

The Aber 350L-22 product is not a complete model of the weapon, but rather an accessory set that significantly improves the realism of miniature Pom Poms from typical plastic kits by renowned manufacturers such as Trumpeter, Tamiya, or Flyhawk. The barrels, made of high-quality brass, surpass standard plastic or resin barrels in terms of quality and detail representation—they are straight, thinner, and feature realistic perforation, making them an excellent choice for advanced modelers constructing Royal Navy vessels from the WWII era.
