May 10, 20242 yr The P-51B/C suffered similar jams as the normally very reliable Browning M2 machine guns were mounted on their sides in order to better fit within the very efficient, but thin, wing and eject spent shells straight down. Nice idea, except it resulted in feed jams while firing in a high G turn. The P-51D/K had a redesigned wing which allowed space not only for one additional M2 in each wing, but the M2's would be mounted straight up, thus eliminating the feed jam issue.
