If you are behind some cover, the turret probably isn't pointed at
you. It can take a second or 2 for the thing to target. Jump out, take
a shot, jump back.

Sometimes you can find a position where you can plink away without
being exposed.

If the turret is low, try tossing in a lightning mine. (Forgot what
the real name is.)  That will draw it's fire for a few seconds.

Or you can cheat and become a shattered hulk of a once proud marine,
who whines like a girl and wets the bed. And no, I don't have any
spare change ;-)
