I have tried the same thing using logic_timers and all that stuff. Pretty much teh only way you can have them be on your side for limited time is to make them spawn and then have them delete or self destruct after so many seconds.

BTW, I love your avatar, I am into cobras myself, my dad has a 97 cobra and we build old-school Cobra-Jet motors. I like meeting other ford fans

I'm not sure if you can set "teams" for gun turrets like this (or any other entity) in HL2DM- if you can get them working they'll shoot everyone, including you.

You might try using ai_relationship to make the turrets friendly to you
and nobody else... in the single player game, you can use !player as
targetname to refer to the player, however I don't know how this would
work in DM.

Haven't tried anything like this myself.
