Country:  | I noticed something on her (as well as on several old WWII planes)... Is there a law on the amount of guns on a plane ? I mean, there is no turret/rear guns... And I saw WWII fighters with no guns at all. | |

Country: | Maestro: As far as "guns" on a plane, none of them are real. They are
mock-ups. The federal law is pretty sticky when it comes to operational
machine-guns ! The ones I've seen are very, very good replicas.

Country: | Some are original guns that have been modified to be non-firing, like removed receivers, firing pins and plugged barrels.

Country: | The owner who had it at Asheboro,NC had several warbirds, but sadly died of cancer. That is why the plane (all his planes) were sold in the first place. I have seen the plane several times and it is beautiful. | |
