I'm trying to work out how to do this.
Forgeworld only has right arm stocked at the moment so I was thinking of doing this:
http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?prodId=prod20006a
Cut the Autocannons from that Item in half so they are single barreled, then glue them close together on the Dreadnought shoulders.
Do you think this would look any good?

Using the Aegis defence line is the easiest, I've found. You don't need to cut much, simply put the autocannons together but don't glue them to the main base of the Aegis turret. Instead, drill a hole on either side of the dreadnought (make sure to snip as much as you can off it before you drill) and plug the hole up with the autocannons. Worked a treat for me.

Decided to do it a slightly different way.

The Flak Cannon turrets is a good idea, although you might not even need to chop them down, they look pretty cool with the separated barrels. However, depending on how many Dreads you want, don't get the Aegis Defense Line. Spring for This instead: http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat440156a&prodId=prod40002a
Essentially, 3 Aegis Defense Lines (3 Dreads) will run you $75 USD, where as you can get this Strongpoint, which contains 3 Aegis Defense Lines and 2 Bastions, for only $90 USD. Its your choice, but 2 Bastions for $15 is a steal, in my book.
Cheers!

My bad - most of the time I see the Rifledread is in GK lists, and we typically take 2-3. In any case, best of luck!
