What is the best and easiest way to make a full scale model look more authentic?

That is a no brainer.  You include a few real parts in the model.

It cost me a lot of money, but I got my first real part for the model today, and it was worth it.  The part I got was the bipod, the legs that hold the gun steady.  The bipod I got is in excellent condition with no rust or damage, save for a few minor scratches, and has almost all of its original bluing.  Needless to say, I am extremely happy with this part.  (Pictures coming soon.)

A little bit of the barrel shroud has been constructed.  There are lots of small fiddly little shapes at the end of the barrel shroud, which will be slow in coming together, but once they are done, much of the rest is just pipe with holes in it.

The adventure continues ...
