Have both this version and the limbered version , excellent quality and a big gun for the price. No problems with straightness of the barrel or anything , sometimes resin can be a bit out of line but quick dip in hot water usually sorts it out., however I didn't need to with this one and looks great with my British artillery crews. I also have used it for the odd soviet crew as a stand in for the multiple types they used (captured, lend lease, stolen etc !!) Works great
