ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE The present invention provides a device for locking a weapon support, rotatable on a horizontal axis of rotation, of an elevationally trainable weapon, relative to a member supporting it on the outside of a turret of a vehicle, which turret is capable of swivelling about a vertical axis of rotation, said device comprising a bore and a bolt on a free end of which there is a handle which can be turned through 180°, said bolt being capable under spring pressure of moving axially in a helical track in a casing surrounding the bolt, the bore being disposed in the weapon support and the bolt casing being located in the turret hood and extends into its interior, the helical track being contained in a gate which, between limit latching positions for latching, and for unlatching, has an intermediate latching position for the bolt enabling it during the swivel of the weapon support to run onto run-on faces which flank the bore in the weapon support in the engagement area of the bolt with the axial movement of the bolt generated by the run-on faces overcoming the pressure of the spring and causing an index pin rigidly connected to the bolt to be force-controlled by the gate into the latching position.
