Abstract
A weapon mount assembly comprising a mounting structure with a mounting hole therethrough for receiving a mounting connector having a head for mounting the assembly to an object, the mounting structure having a front surface and a rear surface, the mounting hole having sufficient depth that the head of the mounting connector can be recessed relative to the front face; an elongated track on the front surface of the mounting structure; a weapon lock configured to receive barrel of a weapon and slidable along the length of the track; and fasteners for locking the weapon lock in the track over the mounting hole, wherein the track is sufficiently long that the weapon lock can be locked by the fasteners over the mounting hole to prevent access to the head of the fastener.
Claims19
A weapon mount assembly comprising:
- (a) a mounting structure with a mounting hole therethrough for receiving a mounting connector having a head for mounting the assembly to an object, the mounting structure having a front surface and a rear surface, the mounting hole having sufficient depth that the head of the mounting connector can be recessed relative to the front face;
- (b) an elongated track on the front surface of the mounting structure;
- (c) a weapon lock configured to receive a barrel of a weapon and slidable along the length of the track;
- and
- (d) fasteners for locking the weapon lock in the track over the mounting hole, wherein the track is sufficiently long that the weapon lock can be locked by the fasteners over the mounting hole to prevent access to the head of the connector.
A weapon mount assembly comprising:
- (a) a mounting structure with a mounting hole therethrough for receiving a mounting connector having a head for mounting the assembly to an object, the mounting structure having a front surface and a rear surface, the mounting hole having sufficient depth that the head of the mounting connector can be recessed relative to the front face;
- (b) a weapon lock configured to receive a barrel of a weapon having a projection to attach the weapon lock to the front surface;
- (c) a receiving hole on the front surface proximate to the mounting hole for receiving the projection;
- and
- (d) fasteners for locking the weapon lock in receiving hole over the mounting hole, so that the weapon lock can be locked by the fasteners over the mounting hole to prevent access to the head of the connector.
A method of storing a weapon comprising the steps of:
- (a) attaching a mounting structure having a front surface, a rear surface and a mounting hole through the front and rear surfaces to an object by inserting a mounting connector through the mounting hole;
- (b) securing a head to the mounting connector through the front surface of the mounting structure;
- (c) placing a bracket with a weapon lock on a track located on the front surface of the mounting structure;
- (d) sliding the weapon lock and the bracket along the track until the mounting hole is no longer visible;
- and
- (e) securing the bracket and the weapon lock to the track with fasteners.
A method of storing a weapon comprising the steps of:
- (a) adjusting a weapon lock having a bracket along a track, the track located on a front surface of a mounting structure, the mounting structure attached to an object by a mounting connector;
- (b) securing the bracket of the weapon lock on the track covering the mounting connector;
- (c) opening the weapon lock;
- (d) inserting a barrel of a weapon in the weapon lock;
- and
- (e) locking the weapon lock such that the weapon cannot be removed from the weapon lock and the mounting structure cannot be removed from the object.
