Re: SAW M249 Cradle/pintle/mount
Are you looking for the M60 Pintle that the M249 can clip onto? I have one you can have for $90 shipped.
Or the older M2 Tripod Soft Mount Cradle? $300-500 or more
Or Military Systems Group Cradle Mount for the weapon and ammo drum clipped to the dovetail on the left side? $500 to $1000+
I think the Post-Vietnam to 1990s M142 Pintle/Cradle we used to mount M60s to our M1025 HMMWV will work for the M249, too
1995 M1025A2 Orig 5SFG GMV ODA525 "Hammerhead"
1995 M1025A2 Orig 1st SFC GMV 5 Commanders In Extremis Force GMV
1984 Chenowth Interim Fast Attack Vehicle 061 'Horny Toad"

Re: SAW M249 Cradle/pintle/mount
Thanks. Nice assortment!
Looking for something like options 2 or 3.
Cantilever arm mount would be ideal.
I can fabricate the arm mount... but the cradle is the tough part.
I might just 'bite the bullet' and get an ORI mount. https://ordnanceresearch.com/m240-249-cradle/ But first checking on what's in the surplus world.
Cheers,
Sirhr

Still looking. Great exchange with Westboro... but I was a couple of day short, even though he was a great gentleman and had some nice mounts... My fault for missing out!
Still looking for a SAW mount with a box-holder, ideally.
Thanks all!

How many cradles do you need? I might have a couple laying around.

Re: SAW M249 Cradle/pintle/mount
Just FYI, my mount came in from DirtySanchez earlier this week.
Fantastic! Exactly what I wanted and in outstanding condition.
Excellent gentleman to deal with.
I am working on the swing arm now and will post when I have it finished!
Cheers and thanks for a smooth and professional transaction!
