> Sweden's FMV has signed a SEK 60 million framework agreement with Svekon for new weapon holders designed to secure small arms during transport and storage, gripping weapons at their center of gravity to reduce damage risk. The holders will replace existing equipment in vehicles like the CV90 and are compatible with multiple rifle models, with the Swedish Coast Guard also expressing interest.

**Sweden’s Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) [has signed](https://www.fmv.se/aktuellt--press/aktuella-handelser/nya-vapenhallare-for-eldhandvapen/) a framework agreement with Svekon for holders that secure small arms during transport and storage. The agreement is worth SEK 60 million.**

– The Swedish Coast Guard has also shown interest in ordering from this agreement, said Viktoria Salwén Reinson, FMV’s project manager for weapons and protection.

It runs for three years and can be extended by three years and then one more, for up to seven years in total, according to FMV. No orders have been placed yet. FMV expects the first one soon. Each order is to be delivered within six months.

The new holders will replace existing ones in vehicles including the CV90, tracked all-terrain vehicles and armoured terrain vehicles. They will also be fitted to newly acquired vehicles. The design can be built into vehicles, ships and aircraft.

– We are delighted to have earned FMV’s trust. This framework agreement marks an important milestone after more than a year of development, and we look forward to moving into the next phase and preparing for delivery, [said](https://svekon.se/en/svekon-awarded-framework-agreement-by-fmv-for-weapon-brackets/) Staffan Razavi Team Manager for Defence & Security at Svekon.

According to FMV, the holder grips the weapon at its centre of gravity rather than by the barrel. This lowers the risk of damage in transit. Adjustable mounting points let it hold the AK 24, AK 25, SSG 26, M4A1, AK 5C and D, and AK 4.

When the holders go into existing vehicles depends on the Swedish Armed Forces’ own planning.
