The invention relates to a mounting post that can be selectively installed in a helicopter or other aircraft in order to support a tactical weapon or other equipment and removed when not required so as to free up additional passenger and/or cargo space. Preferably the mounting post can be quickly installed and removed without requiring the use of any tools. An elongated post having one or more T-track along its length is slid through an opening in an aircraft panel, such as the floor, and slid into a bracket with corresponding T-rails. A stop is used to limit further movement of the post through the bracket and a latch is used to selectively allow the post to be removed.
