Hi Kenny, you're just in the nick of time with this news. I've been looking for main barrels for my 350th Takao and will gladly place an order with B&D Barrels. My only problem is that I cannot find their website, tried googling with no success and it's not in your news report.

I have heard that among other things the main guns on the Richelieu were pretty bad. So when (not if) I get around to picking up a Richelieu I'l have to pick up a set of these.
