Fella in local shop was asking if this can be done, owner said he saw something a few years ago out of somewhere in FL., but has not seen lately. I told them I would ask. Is there anything like this out there?

Thanks

The Army had a few belt fed 16's but they all ended up trashed... I believe they were for APC crewmen. Since the adoption of the M-249 and the APC GUN PORT version of the 16, the belt fed model was left behind as one of the many ODDITIES out there. Kinda like the F-20 TigerShark. Okay, maybe not - the F-20 was actually a fantastic plane, just nobody ever bought one. But it is an example of an oddity. Wait... What was I talking about?

Ares Defense manufacturing is producing one right now. You can't get pictures of it, because of patent reasons. I think they are supposed to come out begining of next year and cost around $1200-$1500 for the upper...

I think it takes minimi boxes.
