Firearm mounting system and method thereof
A firearm mounting system has an L-bracket and a mounting support coupled to a first surface of the L-bracket and adapted to rotate in a first direction. The mounting support has a shaft and a bearing disposed on the shaft extending through a first opening in the body and a second opening in the L-bracket and the bearing is disposed within the first opening. The mounting support has a fixed riser and a tensioning bar and a cam lock extending through the fixed riser and tensioning bar. A base assembly is coupled to a second surface of the L-bracket and adapted to rotate in a first direction. The base assembly has a shaft and a bearing disposed on the shaft extending through a first opening in the base body and a second opening in of the L-bracket and the bearing is disposed within the first opening.
1. A firearm mounting system, comprising:
a bracket;
a mounting support coupled to a first surface of the bracket providing elevation control of the firearm mounting system, wherein the mounting support includes,
(a) a first shaft with a first bearing and a second bearing disposed over the first shaft to provide rotation of the mounting support,
(b) a fixed riser, and
(c) a tensioning bar opposite the fixed riser adapted for securing a firearm to the mounting support;
a base assembly coupled to a second surface of the bracket which is perpendicular to the first surface of the bracket and provides azimuthal control of the firearm mounting system, wherein the base assembly includes a third bearing to provide rotation of the base assembly; and
a cam lock extending through the fixed riser and the tensioning bar.
2. A firearm mounting system, comprising:
a bracket;
a mounting support coupled to a first surface of the bracket providing elevation control of the firearm mounting system, wherein the mounting support includes a first shaft with a first bearing and a second bearing disposed over the first shaft to provide rotation of the mounting support; and
a base assembly coupled to a second surface of the bracket which is perpendicular to the first surface of the bracket and provides azimuthal control of the firearm mounting system, wherein the base assembly includes,
(a) a third bearing to provide rotation of the base assembly,
(b) a second shaft, wherein the third bearing is disposed on the second shaft, and
(c) a body, wherein the second shaft extends through a first opening in the body and a second opening in the second surface of the bracket and the third bearing is disposed within the first opening.
3. The firearm mounting system of claim 1 , wherein the bracket includes an L-shape.
4. The firearm mounting system of claim 1 , wherein the mounting support includes a body, wherein the first shaft extends through a first opening in the body and a second opening in the first surface of the bracket and the first bearing is disposed within the first opening.
5. A firearm mounting system, comprising:
an L-shaped bracket including a first surface perpendicular to a second surface;
a mounting support coupled to the first surface of the L-shaped bracket and adapted to rotate in elevation, wherein the mounting support includes,
(a) a fixed riser, and
(b) a tensioning bar opposite the fixed riser adapted for securing a firearm to the mounting support;
a base assembly coupled to the second surface of the L-shaped bracket and adapted to rotate in azimuth; and
a cam lock extending through the fixed riser and the tensioning bar.
6. The firearm mounting system of claim 5 , wherein the mounting support includes:
a shaft;
a bearing disposed on the shaft; and
a body, wherein the shaft extends through a first opening in the body and a second opening in the first surface of the L-shaped bracket and the bearing is disposed within the first opening.
7. The firearm mounting system of claim 6 , wherein the mounting support includes a control hub coupled to the shaft for moving the shaft independent of the body.
8. A firearm mounting system, comprising:
an L-shaped bracket including a first surface perpendicular to a second surface;
a mounting support coupled to the first surface of the L-shaped bracket and adapted to rotate in elevation; and
a base assembly coupled to the second surface of the L-shaped bracket and adapted to rotate in azimuth, wherein the base assembly includes,
(a) a shaft,
(b) a bearing disposed on the shaft, and
(c) a body, wherein the shaft extends through a first opening in the base body and a second opening in the second surface of the L-shaped bracket and the bearing is disposed within the first opening.
9. A method of making a firearm support system, comprising:
providing an L-shaped bracket including a first surface perpendicular to a second surface;
disposing a mounting support on the first surface of the L-shaped bracket and adapted to rotate in elevation;
disposing a base assembly on the second surface of the L-shaped bracket and adapted to rotate in azimuth;
providing a fixed riser;
providing a tensioning bar opposite the fixed riser adapted for securing a firearm to the mounting support; and
providing a cam lock extending through the fixed riser and the tensioning bar.
10. The method of claim 9 , further including:
providing a shaft;
disposing a bearing disposed on the shaft; and
providing a body, wherein the shaft extends through a first opening in the body and a second opening in the first surface of the L-shaped bracket and the bearing is disposed within the first opening.
11. The method of claim 10 , further including providing a control hub coupled to the shaft for moving the shaft independent of the body.
