As title says is the F-86F supposed to be able to fire guns on ground? Just tried it for no reason and you can fire guns on ground with weight on wheels.

On the F-86F the Weapon Safety is done with the Gun-Missile Selector Switch (OFF – SIGHT CAMERA&RADAR – GUNS – MISSILE), on the OFF position all weapons are inhibited. Now, if you are on the ground, and then set this switch out of OFF, into the GUNS or MISSILE positions then, yes, you can fire the machine guns on the ground:
