On whatifmodellers, people were wondering about the teardrop shaped bumps far out under the wings, next to the ailerons. Model kits seem to get them wrong. What are they? Covering aileron linkage?

Yes, that looks to be the most likely answer

There must be some kind of a pivot point there.
Now I wonder how the linkage is routed from the fuselage, past the guns.
