New Made 60mm M19 Mortar Cup

If you have purchased a cup IE the “Receiver,” a barrel cannot be sent to you until an approved form 1 is received. It is not being sold as a registered destructive device. The cup, which is the receiver, must be shipped to an FFL licensee within your state. The cup will transfer as a standard Title 1 firearm receiver, no different than a standard rifle, shotgun, or handgun. You will go to your dealer and fill out the standard 4473 over-the-counter firearms transaction record. Once the receiver is in your possession, you must fill out and submit Form 1 (application to make and register an NFA firearm) to the BATFE, requesting permission to make a destructive device. Once you have received the approved Form 1 back from the ATF, you will provide us a copy of the Form 1 for our records. We will then be able to ship the barrel.

Must ship to an FFL license, as a Title 1 firearm receiver (no NFA transfer tax or paperwork required to go to FFL dealer). Be advised that it is a violation of ATF/NFA rules to possess a compatible 60mm cup (receiver) and a 60mm tube (barrel) at the same time without an ATF approved Form 1 or Form 4 for the 60mm mortar (or have a Type 10 Federal Firearms License) a barrel cannot be sent until an approved form 1 is received. See our terms and conditions for more information.

This newly manufactured 60mm M19 Mortar Cup (Receiver) is designed for live-fire mortar systems and provides a durable, historically correct replacement component for U.S. 60mm mortar platforms. Precision-machined from 4140/4142 chrome-moly alloy steel, this receiver offers the strength, durability, and dimensional accuracy required for reliable mortar operation.

The mortar cup—commonly referred to as the receiver—is a critical component of the mortar firing assembly. The cup is the interface between the barrel firing mechanism and absorbs part of the repeated impact loads generated during live-fire operation. Manufactured using modern machining methods while maintaining the geometry of the original military design, this receiver ensures proper alignment, dependable ignition, and long service life.

The U.S. 60mm M19 mortar was introduced during World War II as an improved evolution of the earlier M2 60mm mortar, which itself was derived from the influential French Brandt mortar design. The M19 incorporated several refinements, including the ability to trigger fire or drop fire, intended to improve battlefield reliability while maintaining the mobility and rapid-fire capability that made the 60mm mortar indispensable to infantry units.

Lightweight, portable, and capable of delivering high-explosive, smoke, illumination, and training ammunition, the 60mm mortar became a vital organic fire support weapon at the company level. Systems such as the M19 allowed infantry units to deliver indirect fire quickly without relying on heavier artillery assets.

This newly produced receiver is machined from 4140/4142 chrome-moly steel, a high-strength alloy widely used in military weapons systems due to its resistance to fatigue and ability to withstand repeated stress.

Manufacturing highlights include:

These materials ensure the receiver maintains structural integrity even during sustained firing cycles.
