I have some Experience in these things, (riding around in MH-60's) I would have a rear Gunner with a 7.62X51 of some sort ridin the back seat in my bird!!You know.... what about going the route of the AC-47, AC-119, AC-130?
Instead of firing forward... have the stuff aimed sideways and for a pylon turn/circular orbit method? Plenty of twin engined aircraft with long ranges out there.. lots with high wings too.. say, the De Haviland Twin Otter, Fokker F-27 series, and the like?
Edit. Thats not to say that low wing versions wouldn't work (look at the AC-47 lol) but its easier to outfit high wings and they dont need to worry as much about hitting their own wings lol
Bonus is being able to deal with helicopters that might come lookin for trouble! Be surprised at how agile a Super Cub can be, get above the rotor disk and stay in close and she's all mine!
