Thanks for your thoughts, Charlie. Yeah, that would have been smart. My plan now is to plug the rear end of the gun tubes. They will be passed through the hole in the mantlet, and after 7mm or so they will butt up against the white panel that lurks behind the guns. I intend to elevate one or both of the guns a bit, so they will have to be cut at an angle at the back so they butt squarely against the white panel. This will serve as the primary glue point, with the opening in the mantlet providing forward support.
