Combat optimized ballistic remote armament
A remote weapon station (RWS) system for an unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) includes a dedicated weapon, multi-axis gimbal and ammunition handling capabilities with all operations functioning remotely and wirelessly. The RWS system is a gas powered, or self-powered, belt fed, rotating bolt lock weapon. In addition, the RWS is man-portable and air-droppable as the major subsystems may be latched together in the field without tooling or needing to make electrical connections.

Force damping shooting rest system and method
A system for shooting an armament includes a connector configured to connect to a supporting structure, a side to side windage device connected to the connector, an up and down windage device connected to the connector, at least one guide rail connected to the up and down windage device, a carriage slidably connected to the at least one guide rail, and a gas spring connected to the carriage and the up and down windage device. The system rests a gun during shooting, assists steady aim, and limits any significant jarring and recoil impacting the gun, the system and any support, as well as virtually eliminates recoil force borne by the shooter.

Bumper system for an explosive ordnance disposal disruptor
The disclosed technology includes a bumper system for use with an Explosive Ordnance Disposal disruptor. The bumper system can include a bumper stop configured the slidably engage the disruptor, and a bumper configured to receive at least a portion of an initiation system of the disruptor. The bumper may be configured to receive at least a portion of the initiation system such that the bumper is attached to the at least a portion of the initiation system by friction.
Weapon mount
The weapon mount is versatile, lightweight, easy to use, can absorb forces generated by recoil, and may be used for different types of weapons. The weapon mount includes a cradle mounted on a swing or swivel bracket, the cradle having a fixed front support and a back sliding support. First and second shock absorbers are mounted laterally in the cradle parallel to each other. A plurality of connection pins allow adjustment of the cradle to support different weapons. Ammo can holder brackets may be mounted on one side of the cradle. The shock absorbers have hinges, allowing the shock absorbers to be rotated to support different weapons. The swing bracket permits the weapon mount to be rotated 360 clockwise or counterclockwise, and the mount may be elevated 60 or lowered 10. The weapon mount may be made of stainless steel.
