Are there any inherent drawbacks to wielding two guns per turret?

Same reason you should dual wield pistols. Twice the ammo in half the time
>>
>>34840758
Larger turret increases the overall size and profile of the vehicle
Bulky breeches cramp the crew compartment and provide yet another thing to break your head on
second gun limits ammo carried, especially if they're different calibers/shells

This
Also 2 guns means it is much harder to aim at things since each gun must be aimed individually in order to hit precisely.

2 guns increases weight, maintenance cost, and unit cost. If you lose a turret, you lose 2 guns instead of 1.

Of course 2 guns can be beneficial with AA guns and fast-firing turrets that need 2 barrels in order to provide sufficient firepower without the same barrel

So you could kill the terget twice?

>>34840859

also bore sighting and gun reliability.

If one barrel is jammed, good luck with fixing it.

unless you fire both barrels at exactly the same time the ring will get fucked really fast.

unless you fire both barrels at exactly the same time aim will be offset after each shot

you would need separate/complex system/s to load the guns => more weight, more points to fail

better to have a single more powerful gun than 2 weaker ones

The Prowler was the weakest MBT by a large margine for a very long time for a reason. It was only good for HE camping which is more an arty thing
