The tail gun on the BUFF is wrong. It should be an M61 20mm, not four M2 0.50-cals.

Not in the TBO-verse. They kept the quad .50s.

They did? I thought the BUFFs received them after the B-60 force did.

According to the Seer, the .50s have better performance up at the normal flight altitude. Also, the 20mm that got installed @ were originally slated to get stuck into B-58s. When those got cancelled, there was a surplus, so they put them in the 52s.
