A feature of this invention is the provision of a mount for a Gatling type gun having a muzzle clamp which is journaled for rotation in a reciprocable mass and which reciprocable mass is journaled for longitudinal reciprocation with respect to stationary support guides. Additionally, the housing is coupled to the support structure by a combination of a recoil adapter and a rigid guide, one end of the adapter and one end of the guide having a common transverse attachment to the support structure, the other end of the adapter having a pivot to the housing which is journaled for longitudinal reciprocation to the guide. This arrangement increases the recoiling mass without significantly increasing the total weight, precludes bending of the recoil adapters, and reduces frictional interferences. |
