I've recently acquired a Trumpeter 280mm Leopold. w00t!!
I keep hearing that there is aftermarket barrels, PE, etc. I can find some shells, but nothing else. I'm not sure if it's out of production, but I've googled and googled and come up empty.
Can anyone point me in the direction of the aftermarket goodies?
Related but separate, I have found that there are these weird rockets that Aber are saying relate to this kit... any idea/background/history about what they are??

Etch parts are available from Eduard. The shells you mention were experimental and called 'arrow' and pushed the range of the gun out to about 75 miles or Kilometers, can't recall which, but a long way! The turned barrel is still shown available. Try an email here;
