Having had a look on the GW website, am I understanding correctly that only 1 havoc comes with an Autocannon?

If yes what is the best kit to get the 4 autocanons I need for my squad? I was thinking of the FW ones or kit bashing the IG heavy weapon squad weapons.

Any other suggestions?

The FW autocannon are lovely so like Kirsten linked to - use them!

I used those autocannons. They're a bit hard to get them to be held properly with normal marine hands, and the ammo feeds don't fit on CSM backpacks, but the guns by themselves look ace

I'll be using regular marines (FAllen + red corsair themed army) would they fit better to the ACs?

I used a standard CSM marine model to mount them to. Don't get me wrong they hold the gun, but needed a bit more converting than normal. But I haven't used the backpacks.

Heavy Bolter Havocs are cheap on eBay, largely because the Heavy Bolter sucks for them.
Get that, cut the nose off, and add anything that extends the barrel to Autocannon length.
Cheap, reasonably good looking, and a unique pose for firing Autocannons.

If you cut off the bottom fins/vents on a regular backpack they will fit on with minimal greenstuffing.
