Do you want the whole gun or just the barrel?

Just the barrel part. I am going to add it to the Bronco Comet. I looked around for a metal barrel,but no luck.

Well that sort of rules out the Tamiya kit as it has a lot of features molded on to the barrel parts.  Is there an aftermarket barrel producer of a metal 25 pdr barrel?

Maybe something other than a 25 pdr barrel would be better?  According to Wikipedia - Ordnance QF 25 Pounder page, the bore diameter is 87.6 mm (3.45 in).  So that gives you a number of options in the 85-88-90 mm barrel range.

Can't seem to find anyone doing a metal barrel.  Might be necessary to buy and sacrifice either a full gun or even a Bishop SPG.  If the latter, maybe swap the armament of the Comet and the Bishop?
