A rack system comprising a military troop carrying vehicle and a weapon stowage and mounting system for a military assault weapon having a defined muzzle end, grip stock, grip stock clamp, hand guard and caliper grip, the weapon stowage and mounting system further comprising:

• a mounting frame permanently mounted within a wall and a floor of the military troop carrying vehicle and wholly within an interior of the military troop carrying vehicle;
• two down legs attached to the mounting frame and extending to the floor of said military vehicle thereby allowing the floor to support the weight of the military assault weapon, said two down legs secured to the floor via an adjustable thread bolt interfacing with a corresponding slot in the floor of the military troop carrying vehicle;
• a cradle attached to the said two down legs, said cradle for receiving the grip stock of the military assault weapon;
• a top clamp for securing the grip stock to the cradle;
• a caliper grip for receiving the hand guard of the military assault weapon, said caliper grip positioned a distance from the cradle to allow for securing the weapon at the grip stock and the hand guard simultaneously and further comprising an adjustable platen configurable for weapon type via a pin-and-hole placement;
• a toggle clamp for securing the caliper grip about the hand guard;
• and
• wherein the weapon stowage and mounting system physically secures the military assault weapon emplaced therein in a down orientation wherein the muzzle end is pointed straight downward towards the floor of the military troop carrying vehicle, and retains such military assault weapon as so emplaced unless purposely removed, and serves to secure such military assault weapon from flying about as a secondary projectile in the event of a vehicle roll over, vehicle collision or vehicle blast event.
