Finally complete sets of replacment guns sets are now available for the Revell "Alabama" and "Kearsarge" kits from Cottage Industry Models, Ltd.
These two new Naval Artillery Sets (# AS-001 for the U.S.S. Kearsarge, and # AS-002 for the C.S.S. Alabama) sell for $ 39.95 plus $ 6.00 S&H in the U.S.. International orders should contact CIM, Ltd. prior to ordering for shipping costs.

Each set includes the complete set of accurrized guns and carriages for the respective ship, along with the various buckets, worms, rammers, scoops, etc., and also includes our special hand-made scale model rigging rope "CIM-Rope" (just for the guns, not the entire ship! Yes, I have had some questions.) cast in metal and resin.

For example, the 7" Blakely gun used on the Alabama took me 3 days to assemble and paint. A very detailed little item, and it fits the Revell kit perfectly. The extra goodies listed above will also add lots of little details to the overall model that were omitted from the kits.

These items can be had from either Cottage Industry Models, Ltd. www.cottage-industry-models.com directly, or from Military Miniatures Warehouse, or just ask for them at your local Hobby Shop.

If you guys have never seen the kits Cottage Industries makes, they're very nice. I got their CSS David kit for Gunny's PT boat campaign. ~Kenny
