Passed the validator: real scale, rests on y = 0, front faces +Z, deterministic.

Use it

Code for the specimen as it is set up above; it follows your knobs.

JavaScript

import { createAsset } from 'https://gaitkit.com/cdn/sentry-turret.mjs';

const sentryTurret = createAsset();
scene.add(sentryTurret);                      // rests on y = 0, front faces +Z

// 'gun' pivots on its hinge: -12° to 8° around x
sentryTurret.getObjectByName('gun').rotation.x = THREE.MathUtils.degToRad(-12);

JSX

import { useMemo } from 'react';
import { createAsset } from 'https://gaitkit.com/cdn/sentry-turret.mjs';

export function SentryTurret() {
  const model = useMemo(() => createAsset(), []);
  return <primitive object={model} />;
}

GDScript

# Import sentry-turret.glb (download below). Moving parts are separate nodes, pivoted on their hinge.
$SentryTurret/gun.rotation_degrees.x = -12

// Import sentry-turret.glb with glTFast (com.unity.cloud.gltfast).
transform.Find("gun").localEulerAngles = new Vector3(/* x: */ -12, 0, 0);

Prompt

Use the gaitkit MCP server: get_variant({ "id": "sentry-turret", "want": "default look" })
then place the result.
