The Bradley weapons sets look pretty nice. I may have to get them for a future M2 '80s REFORGER build.

The Bradley 25mm barrel was designed by Aber with my encouragement and with help of the measurements and photos taken by Pete Becerra (Epi). It is the first aftermarket early M242 25mm Bushmaster barrel with correctly shaped muzzle brake (i.e. a cylinder with flat angled surfaces machined on top and bottom, not an incorrect cone like in other aftermarket products).

I know DEF and others make a Type 10 barrel, but this new one looks so nice I'll get one or two for my Tamiya kits.

These are nice, and so subdued for Aber, the fuel barrel ends are a nice touch.
