To my knowledge, the Trumpeter supplied ones are fine from a shape standpoint. Would have to check details, but Aber and Master both produce turned brass barrels for the 8/55 Mk 12 guns. DiStefan produces a set of 3D turrets with and without barrels to represent the New Orleans, Astoria and Minneapolis’ 8/55 Mk9’s. I have a set of these and they are very nicely done, think I will even use the 3D printed barrels vs brass.
