Making a turret style thing

I was thinking of making a mounted turret type thing that you could setup in front of a base as extra protection. What I was thinking of doing is to take a tall metal pole with a pointy tip and making a small piece of wood that fits snuggly but is still able to be pushed up and down on the pole if you press hard enough, Then I would drill a hole in the top and bottom of one of my guns, and make the hole the same size as the pole. Then I could just slip the gun over the top of the pole and set the height with the small piece of wood. Then all I would have to do is stick the pole on the ground wherever I want and slip the gun on.Do you think this would work, or do you have any better ideas?

So basically, the gun is mounted on the platform, but still mobile and can be set up and taken down easily. You could even go as far asa to make it practical by making a hose to a Souce of water, such as a tap or hose attatchment. or even a backpack. If you've seen some screen shots of Halo 2 or played it, the Guns they mount close to the ground in Cairo Station, I got my idea from that.
EDIT: What the? Okay, thge right poles moved. The one pole that stayed in position is where the other should be

Or something like this...
A extremely large two person pump could allow for massive amounts of water to be transfered per pump. Something like 2 or 3" PVC made to work like an APH pump.
You could do CPS like I said in the link, or just air pressure.
