Lead times are estimates and may vary. We will keep you updated on the status of your order.

Firearms Direct Club is proud to offer the LIMA SIX Belt Fed Upper Receiver. The LIMA SIX is a game-changing upper receiver that installs on any mil-spec AR15 or M16 lower receiver and provides belt fed capability. While a few parts must be swapped on the lower receiver, no permanent modifications or gunsmithing is required. Please read the entire product description for important technical information before ordering.

⚠️ REQUIRED: Upgraded Buffer System

The LIMA SIX WILL NOT FUNCTION with a standard AR15 buffer setup.

An upgraded buffer is mandatory for proper cycling and reliable function. You must run one of the following configurations:

  • Our Buffer Upgrade Kit for the LIMA SIXstrongly recommended. Firearms Direct Club carries this kit and recommends it as the optimal, purpose-built solution for this upper.
  • An AR10-style buffer (short, 2.5″), H2 minimum weight — for semi-auto ONLY.

Add our Buffer Upgrade Kit to your order to ensure your LIMA SIX runs correctly out of the box.

Included: VSEVEN Inconel Straight Gas Tube

This upper ships with the upgraded VSEVEN Inconel Straight Gas Tube — a $75 upgrade over the standard stainless steel gas tube. Inconel offers superior heat and corrosion resistance for demanding belt fed use.

Patent-Pending Stretched Upper Receiver

The LIMA SIX features a patent-pending stretched upper receiver, which provides an additional ~3/4″ of bolt carrier group travel compared to a standard AR15. This is a critical improvement for a belt fed firearm — the additional travel assists in delinking rounds from the belt, resulting in more reliable feeding. It also lowers perceived recoil and delivers a more controllable rate of fire. No other belt fed AR15 on the market has this upgrade.

Precision Top Cover

The LIMA SIX features a top cover unlike any other belt fed available. With user-adjustable tension on the hinge, two-point latch engagement, and an adjustable set-screw to take up any slack that may develop over time, the LIMA SIX has an extremely reliable ability to hold zero even after repeated opening and closing. Initial testing shows that sub 2-MOA accuracy is achievable — unheard of for a belt fed firearm.

Barrel Compatibility

The LIMA SIX is compatible with standard AR15 barrels (with simple modification), although factors like barrel length, profile, and gas system length must be considered before swapping barrels. Please refer to the Tech Info section for complete information regarding acceptable barrels.
