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.

FightLite Industries’ MCR-060 claims to be the lightest belt-fed upper receiver assembly, and it’s also simple to use. The MCR (Mission Configurable Rifle) will fit any AR15, M16, or M4 lower receiver. It’s chambered for 5.56 x 45mm NATO rounds. It is compatible with all AR15 and M16 magazines as well as M27 linked ammunition–but maybe not at the same time.

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.
