hexagonal boltheads, properly sized, numbered and located
slot for barrel
solid blast hood for gun mount captain with subtle exterior framing
mount bottom post to aid in alignment
set contains 9 left-handed mounts and 9 right-handed mounts (the difference is the location of the blast hood  - see photos in the carousel above which are marked to show where mounts of each type should be located on your model)
all mounts marked either "L" or "R" inside the mount to indicate whether the mount is left-handed or right-handed
