I'm kind of curious about this. What non-vehicle, non-monster model can fire the most guns in a single turn?
(I am here describing 'Guns' as 'Any weapon which can be individually targeted, not counting weapons which can be fired twice using a special rule'. It's specific, but they're my rules.)

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a Tau unit I was overlooking, but currently the most I can think of is a Tech Priest on a Bike with a Servo-Harness and Combi-weapon - Just to make the weapon options as diverse as possible, we'll say a Combi-Melta. That gives a Plasma shot, a Melta shot (at -1), a Flamer attack, a Twin Boltgun salvo, and a Combi-Boltgun volley (at -1). Five weapons in total! That's SO MANY weapons!

But can anyone top it?

Big mek on a bike with two kombi-skorchas (or kombi-rokkits).
2 deffguns, 2 shoota profiles, 2 skorcha/rokkit profiles; 6 weapons.

Oh, you're counting 2 bolters as a twin boltgun, so you might also count 2 deffguns as a twin deffgun which also brings him down to 5 weapons.

I do!!!!!!!!!!

Do we include Abilities, Stratagems and other things that allow Models to generate additional Shots?

Ladies, Gentlemen, everyone else, I believe we have a winner. (Amd a very appropriate one, at that.)
Twin Boltguns are one weapon because they're only able to target a single unit - It's Rapid Fire 2, not two Rapid Fire 1 weapons.
Two *Dakkaguns (Deffguns would be crazy powerful) each can target a seperate enemy, and as such he gets 6 total weapons.

What is it with biker mechanics and bringing lotsa guns?
