Actually they are, but they fade out, so they're only aligned with the barrels
for a very short moment.  Should they follow the barrels while fading out?

    Good question. I think I could go either way. Without actually seeing
one in action, I wouldn't be sure. The explosion should stay in it's planes
but some of the burning gases should still be being expelled as the barrel
turns.

Hmm, actually I should add a smoke-system too then...

Anyway, first I should finish the model.

After examining the ultimate authority on this subject (Terminator 2 -
Judgement Day) it appears that there is no indication of it following the
rotation of the barrel.

One thing that was visibly different was that the flame appears to begin
approximately a foot beyond the end of the barrel.

I didn not read the text before playing it and had the volume turned quite
high... ;-)

How about some smoke staying there after the single shots?

uhm :)
How about giving me some time to finish the model? :)

But you're right actually...  The glows were only temporary.

I know...
It was very difficult to synchronize the sound.

Nice! You should add a stream spent shell casings being ejected as it fires :)
(once you finish the gun model, of course)
