Forum rules
This is the forum to share your recent aviation photos with the rest of the community, being photos not older than six months at the moment of topic opening. Theme-based topics, not about recent events, should go into the sub-forum.
Although we will not screen beforehand, we reserve the right to delete any images, especially if clearly unsharp or otherwise low in quality. For more information on how to upload you images, check this post. In topic titles, please use airfield names in stead of just codes, and be clear about what kind of photos your viewers can expect (e.g. CIV/MIL, location etc.).
Finally, bring any photo criticism understandable and to the point, not cynical or offensive! Simultaneously, do not feel offended by criticism per se, but simply explain your motives, taste et cetera, or ignore if you wish so.
It makes sense when the firing of the gun is yet to come. Than the gunpowder will stick on the mud and can easily be removed (I guess, never don it myself.)
In fact, something like this was done by F-86 Sabre-crewchiefs during the Korean War. The blastpanels of the .50's were greased/oiled. The gunshot residue was easier to clean off and it was immediately apparent to the CC if the guns were fired or not.
