Nobles Manufacturing, Inc.

The VIPER family of gun mounts, developed by Nobles, has been purpose built to bring lethality and control to a range of crew served weapons from heavy machine guns to medium caliber cannons. Available for any crew-served weapon application, these mounts are modular, facilitating a mission specific payload, and utilize Nobles' patented gun mount braking system allowing for stabilization of the weapon. The first VIPER™ mount was developed in

Nobles works with US and international end users, contractors and governments, providing effective engineered solutions to weapons system design and development difficulties. We supply ammunition-handling configuration and manufacturing expertise for all small and medium caliber weapon system applications. From small caliber remote weapon stations and crew served mounts, to complex medium caliber overhead weapon stations and two-man turrets, Nobles ensures the ammunition handling system is functional in a defined space claim to eliminate ammunition routing as a potential point of failure. Recently, Nobles partnered with the US military to support ammunition can and mount development for a purpose built light weight remote weapon station for the M134 mini-gun. Nobles leveraged its EWS capability to design and manufacture a 1000 round ammunition can, gun mounting system, and 7.62MM feed chute to bring a new capability to market.

Ensuring the steady flow of ammunition Machine guns, and all other larger weapon systems, require a magazine for storing large quantities of ammunition, enabling the operator to maximize the weapons rate of fire without compromising fire superiority. The application of weapons on multiple platforms often requires specific customization of the magazine to fit and function within the space available. Nobles offers a wide range of ammunition magazines, for small and medium caliber weapon systems, that optimize availability of ammunition no matter what the configuration demands. To ensure durability, our magazines are made of aluminum and stainless steel or lightweight composite materials. Typically, we custom-configure the magazine according to each customer’s requirements and specifications. Our designs are based on the amount of rounds the magazine is required to hold, space claim, proximity to the weapon and loadingdownloading considerations. Whatever the shape, size and application, our design and engineering experts are ready and able to accommodate the needs of our customers. Additionally, our magazines are designed to work in conjunction with our flexible ammunition feed chutes in order to create a comprehensive system ensuring optimal form, fit and function. Whether purchased together as a system, or separately as required, Nobles will ensure seamless integration for any application. Below are several examples of magazine and ammunition systems we have designed and developed for our customers.
