This is a MIL-SPEC product, available from the Security Products Division of STS.
The MK16 MOD 9 assembly is the basic and most often used stand configuration for mounting most conventional small arm weapons on shipboard platforms. The assembly consists of two main parts, the MK16 MOD 9 stand and the tripod. The stand can be mounted independent of the tripod as well.
Various stops, adaptors, and stow lock hardware are used in conjunction with the MK16 MOD 9 stand. Most Army, Navy, and Marine small arms mounts are secured through use of a pintle, or shaft that is fixed to the bottom of the mounts yet pivots in its corresponding stand. Typically the Army uses a small pintle while the Navy uses a large pintle. Most train stops are set upon installation, while others need to be adjustable for deployment on other platforms. Likewise, stow locks for various mounts change in configuration from mount to mount or platform to platform.
