Hi, great video and nice plane! I have always been wondering, and I can't really tell from the video, do the 6 guns fire in parallel (rounds exits the barrel on all 6 at the same time) or are there any deliberate offset in the firing between the guns?

This aircraft saved so many bomber crews lifes.Its great to see these 50 cals in action :-)

Love it..!!! Next time have the engine cranked.....I always wondered why no one had re-armed some old warbirds.....would love to see a P-51 and a Spitfire strafing an old boat anchored safely out to sea. Would be amazing to film.

As an aircraft armourer and WW2 reenactor I approve! :-)

Not something you would see everyday at a shooting range.

Sad that these aircraft can't be flown with the live guns mounted

The democracy firing out of this freedom machine brings a tear to my eyes.
