The present system provides a detachable cup or receptacle for receiving the butt stock of a weapon so that a greater portion of the surface area of the butt stock is stabilized when aiming and firing a weapon. The system provides fastening means for removably fastening the cup to the uniform of a shooter when wearing body armor. For ease of use, the system includes a graduated positioning system that can receive the butt stock and allow it to slide into place where, in one embodiment, it slips into a recessed area that matches the dimension of the butt stock for greater security of the positioning of the weapon. The weapon can be easily removed from the cup so that the shooter's mobility and the ability of the shooter to move the weapon back and forth from a shooting position is not compromised.
1. A device comprising:
a cup comprising first and second removably coupled sections, wherein the first removably coupled section comprises first and second butt stock retaining walls orthogonal to an upper surface, the first and second walls being closer together at a first end and further apart at a second end, wherein
all of the bottoms of the first and second walls are located on the upper surface,
the first and second walls are configured to provide a compression fit to at least a portion of a butt stock, and
the first removably coupled section is removably coupled to the second removably coupled section.
2. The device of claim 1 further including at least one slot formed below the upper surface for receiving fasteners for securing the device to a user.
3. The device of claim 1 further including a first opening at the first end and a second opening at the second end.
4. The device of claim 1 further including a first lip on the first wall and a second lip on the second wall for retaining the butt stock in place during operation.
5. The device of claim 1 further including a plurality of slots or a lower surface of the device for receiving fasteners for securing the device to a user.
6. The device of claim 1 wherein the second removably coupled section is wedge-shaped in the longitudinal direction.
7. The device of claim 1 wherein the second removably coupled section is wedge-shaped in the latitudinal direction.
