A firearm support system is adapted to be installed in a vehicle, in particular an aircraft. The vehicle includes a compartment to accommodate the crew. The compartment has: a bearing surface, an upper structure rising above the bearing surface, and an opening, through which a firearm shoots. The support system includes: an anchoring portion, for being fixed to the upper structure and located in the compartment; a mobile support, which is coupled to the anchoring portion in a mobile manner, is adapted for receiving the firearm, and allows the firearm to move between an operating position, in which the firearm is ready to shoot through the opening, and a non-operating position, in which the firearm is retracted.

A firearm support for a firearm includes: a body, which is provided with at least one profile on its surface; a feeler pin, for striking against the profile and for being coupled to the firearm so as to follow the movement of said firearm; a support element, rotatable around a first axis (z-z) relative to the body. The support element is suited to be coupled to the firearm, thus allowing mutual rotation between the support element and the firearm around a second axis (x-x).

An externally-operated weapon has a direct current servo motor that provides motive force to drive the weapon operating group at an average rate of fire. Within a single cycle, the weapon operating group is driven at rates greater than and less than the average rate of fire, while the overall rate for a single cycle is maintained at the average rate of fire. Some benefits of servo motor control include reduced power consumption, increased bolt dwell time, expansion of the weapon's battlefield role from one to many roles, and increased accuracy and shot-to-shot precision while firing from an open bolt position.
