auto firing turrets???

I seem to remember, or think I do, reading about auto firing turrets. any9one know if this is correct? and if it is, where can I find them or what are they called? I don't find them in the station outfitting area. thanks in advance.
 
There are turreted versions of some of the weapons. The station you are in probably just doesn't carry any, try another one.
 
So you mean setting turrets to fire at will? If so you set that in the right UI panel under "functions"?

they are still called beam laser/cannon etc. except they have a little turret icon next to the name. The fixed versions show a crosshair, the gimbals show their own hard to describe icon, and the turrets have an icon that looks like a little turret.

Do the weapons have a T for turret? Like this:
2E/T
The symbol would look like a turret pointing to the right.
Look at the fragment cannon.

If you set to fire at will, every ship you target it will fire on, so its not great if the cops are around, or unwanted ships. I prefer target only. I only set to fire at will, if I am in my Anaconda and am surrounded by enemies only.
