A mounting device for securing a firearm to a support structure such as a motor vehicle includes: a base plate defining a generally planar mounting surface; a locking pin, a guide pin, and a plurality of mounting posts extending away from the mounting surface in orthogonal relation thereto. The mounting posts primarily support the firearm and are arranged on the base plate to receive the firearm in a direction orthogonal to the mounting surface and to retain the predetermined firearm against removal from the mounting surface in directions parallel thereto. A cover plate includes an opening through which the locking pin extends and a slot through which the guide pin extends for support of the cover plate in spaced, generally parallel and overlapping relation to the mounting surface. A locking device is releasably attached to the locking pin extending through the opening such that the cover plate is releasably retained on the guide pin whereby the firearm is secured on the plurality of mounting posts between the cover plate and the mounting surface. The guide pin includes a middle neck portion having a reduced thickness and the slot in the cover member is defined by a first aperture adjacent to and intersecting with a second aperture. The first aperture is sized to allow a head portion of the guide pin to extend therethrough and the second aperture is sized to allow the neck portion to slide therein for retention of the cover member on the guide pin.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. An apparatus for securing a firearm having operational elements, comprising:a support structure;at least one elongate member integral with and extending away from said support structure;a cover member having an opening through which one of said at least one elongate member extends in generally orthogonal relation to said support structure, said cover member shaped to cover the operational elements of the firearm; anda locking device separate from said cover member and releasably attached to said elongate member extending through said opening in said cover member such that said locking device engages an outer surface of said cover member and maintains said cover member in overlapping relation to said support structure for retention of the firearm when the firearm is disposed between said cover member and said support structure.
