Hi guys, I've found these metal barrels for WW2 US machines (M1919) used in the airplanes (so the factory, Master Model, sales these)on the web and I think these small barrels could be very handy for all braille scale modellers who love Sherman and US army ground vehicles:

The comparison with Dragon M1919 plastic barrel is evident and the substitution of the metal barrel with the plastic barrel is fattible, cutting with the edge the oversize part

Finally, I think these barrels could be substitute the normal plastic barrel with a little modify in the size.
I hope we can to see very soon a decent replic of Browning M2 barrel.
Happy modelling
