Own the Most Affordable Belt-Fed AR Upper in the World – SHOT Show 2019
I like it. There's also a short video at the link.
If you have an M16 lower, you can take advantage of the belt-fed full auto. Quote:

Damn that is awesome I want one. Now to start saving my lunch money.
Hell you could make the range rock with an Echo trigger and a belt. ADD: As light as it is and with the ease of changing barrels I bet the military takes a look at that.

Here is what I can tell you about this subject. FightLight Industries started out as Ares Defense. Ares owner Geoffrey Herring started taking deposits for Gen I uppers. Years went by & none had received their uppers & lots of people started getting their deposit refunded. The guy I bought my M-16 from as one of them.
Gen I uppers stared trickling out & were not without problems. Feed trays wore out, and the links for the belts needed stretching. I have seen them & handled them. Never shot one personally because of what I have seen. Then there is this from a few years ago @ an annual MG shoot. |
