There was a GPMG 'fit' for the Beverley also firing out of a para door. Unfortunately with the enormous sponson and fixed undercarriage just forward of the door the field of fire was very limited and it was always more likely that one would do far more damage to one's own aircraft than to any enemy, whether on the ground or in the air.
