Hello,

are the guns on the IS-2 and IS-3 the same? Could I use an Aber IS-2 barrel on the Trumpeter IS-3M?


Thanks,
Thomas

I believe the JS-3 used the same new and improved D25-T that was featured on all later JS-2 models.

Gun are the same, just like Scott said, but I would check the barrel anyway. This the the picture of a barrel from IS-3 manual. Hope, it might help you.
