P-51D primary and secondary guns are now set up to the correct weapon groups.


Who says they don't listen to the customers.  And to think I was considering the whiskey bribe method. :rofl :aok

I have read posts about this for awhile now....what exactly is/was the big deal?  4 guns on 1 trigger, 2 on the other?  Did it go inside matched with outside and the middle gun being the odd one?

Well you should, it was your wedding that got me started on that stuff.

Strangely enough, it didn't drive me to alcohol.  Guess I chose wisely. :)

Yep that was it. :lol

Seriously, the load out had 4 guns with the same number of 50 cal rounds and another 2 guns with more rounds (Its late and I am not going to go dig out the precise numbers).

The P-51D could have it's guns set to fire in any groupings by some switches.  So, any setup is correct, but most of the pilots set them to fire with 4 in sequence and 2 by themselves for "plinking".  This is mentioned coincidently in the December issue of Flypast (just got it airmail from England today).

Cheers.
