Construction

The FN M3M Weapon Mount is a robust, fully-mechanical pintle-mount system engineered specifically to integrate the high-rate .50 cal FN M3M (GAU-21) machine gun onto land and sea platforms, featuring a soft-mount for absorbing recoil and stable firing without requiring electrical power.


Key Features

Designed for heavy suppressive fire applications, it supports the FN M3M’s ~1,100 rpm cyclic rate with a 300-round interchangeable ammo box, ambidextrous firing controls, wide angles of elevation/depression, and optional accessories such as Picatinny rails, links/case collectors, and ballistic shields.

Maintenance

Routine maintenance for the FN M3M Weapon Mount includes regular inspection and lubrication of the pintle interfaces, recoil-absorbing components, and weapon feed/accessory points, along with functional testing of firing controls and mounting hardware to ensure reliable integration and performance under operational conditions.
