Does any one make turned Bofors barrels in 1/48? Did a search and came up empty. The closest I could find is German 3.7 cm barrels, but the flash suppressors are slotted - the Bofors aren't. This is for Merit 1/48 PT Boat armed with a Bofors. Also 4-round clips - I need quite a few of those!

As 1/48 is also an aircraft scale, you might find something in aircraft aftermarket.

Schatton Modellbau have a 1/48 Bofors 40mm for the Hungarian Me-210.
