I just glue them down. It doesn't seem that leaving the guns on the field without the crew ever really is important in games, but YMMV. Some of the locals...

I have probably asked this before, what is the best matt varnish? I generally brush on a polyurethane gloss varnish on all my figures first (for durability)...
