RECEIVER DESIGN

More travel for belt-fed operation.

The stretched receiver provides approximately ¾ inch of additional bolt carrier group travel compared with a standard AR-15. That extra travel helps the system pull cartridges free from the belt links, supporting reliable feeding in the Lima Six platform.

FEED COMPONENTS

M249 feed pawls.

The Lima Six incorporates M249 feed pawls into its belt-feed system, bringing established components into a platform built around the AR-15.

FEED TRAY

Billet machined. Hardened 17-4PH.

The top-loading feed tray is machined from billet 17-4PH stainless steel and hardened. Opening the top cover provides direct access to the tray for belt loading.

CHARGING HANDLE

Reciprocating. Removable for cleaning.

The charging handle reciprocates with the bolt carrier group and is retained by two hex screws. Its removable design allows access for cleaning and maintenance.

TOP COVER

Adjustable support for your optic.

The adjustable top cover helps maintain a secure optic mounting platform and hold zero. Adjustable hinge tension provides added support for heavier optics.
