An omni-directional recoil energy absorption mechanism has a slipping disk supported by a support plate carrying a weapon; and a cover plate covering the slipping disk and capturing it to create a sandwich structure of cover plate, slipping disk and support plate. Bolts act in conjunction with pressure springs to press the cover plate to the slipping disk toward the support plate and create friction forces in a plane of the slipping disk. Tension springs connect the slipping disk to the support plate under recoil force configured to return the slipping disk and the weapon to an initial position, in a center of the support and cover plates. The springs are preloaded to a pre-defined level to oppose, flexibly, the recoil forces in any vertical and radial directions, while absorbing the recoil energy by allowing the slipping of the slipping disk in between the cover and support plates.
