Abstract
A firearm is adapted to use linked ammunition, either as a stand-alone firearm or a kit for the firearm. A belt feed lever is actuated by a drive roller in communication with the firearm recoil assembly. The belt feed lever turns a vertical drive shaft. The drive shaft operates a lower pawl, the manipulation of which advances the next round of linked ammunition to a position above the feed ramp. The firearm feeds linked ammunition “upside down,” that is, with the links facing downward. A box mount is fitted in place of the standard box magazine when the firearm is used to fire linked ammunition, thereby providing a feed tray and feed follower. To convert back to the use of ammunition fed from magazines, the user need only remove the box mount and replace it with a traditional box magazine.
