Need a little help

Well im back trying to model again and as practice i made a turret and now im trying to animate it. I it tracks the target point fine (look at constraint) as long as it only moves side to side. However once it moves father away or gets closer it starts doing wonky things. What i think i need to do is make the main body of the turrent so it can only rotate around. Can someone tell me how to do that

heh, it would be really cool if you could get moving turrets on ships.

I don't know how to do it myself though.

well, you can get objects to move and follow, but you are right, I don't think you can get parts of object to move like that,
