It's not a big deal, although I prefer aft mounts where historical.

Sadly, either there is no solution or my post was lost as the page turned
A turning of the page is my excuse, and I'm shtickin' to it...



Did you happen to remove your gun crew prior to changing the weapon fore to aft? Did you happen to check for the slots prior to departing on patrol with the new gun position? If you had the slots after departing, did you Save the game, exit the game, then come back into the game and Load that Save, so that the game "initializes" the new gun location? Either way though, refer to Section 3 of the "NewColetrainsAndOthersDGfix.pdf" file in the Support / HowTo folder, also linked to in the "01_FotRSU_TableOfContents.pdf" file in the Support folder... This is a Stock game issue that will apparently always haunt the game...
