I’m looking for some detali pics of the Quad 40 gun tubs and directors used on U.S. ships just need a little detail like ready round lockers and racks. Also a pic or two of the 25 man balsa liferafts. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

What scale? L’Arsenal has already done the heavy lifting and made these items in 1:350. Their quality is excellent.

Quad tubs with PE ammo racks

If you page dont a bit there is a thread titled Fletchers. In it Jeff Herne attached a Photoshop tour of the USS Kidd in Baton Rouge which includes some of the information you seek.

Also go to NAVSOURCE.ORG and be prepared to spend hours looking over the pictures.
