FightLite Industries Next-Generation DFX Belt-Fed Upper Receiver

FightLite Industries introduces the DFX, a belt-fed upper receiver assembly compatible with MIL-Spec AR-15, M16, M4, or HK416 pattern lower receivers. The new DFX features a slim-line upper receiver, free-floating barrel, and handguard system designed for accuracy, performance, and reliability.
FightLite Industries @ TFB:
- POTD: FightLite Belt-Fed Lever Action Rifle
- FightLite MXR – Multi-caliber, Multi-magazine Platform
- New FightLite Raptor Belt-Fed AR Upper: *Real* High-Capacity Firepower
The DFX kit is said to require no permanent modifications to the lower receiver and can be installed in minutes. The kit includes an operator's manual, a recoil spring for reliable linked ammunition stripping, a modified bolt catch for the DFX upper, and 100 USGI M27 ammunition links.
Priced at $3,995, I guess this is one more thing I’ll have to live without, although I think the cost of ammo would be an ever bigger issue over time. Luckily, one of my friends owns a FightLite belt-fed; I just have to visit him more often.
Key Features of the DFX Upper Receiver:
- Universal MIL-Spec Compatibility. Precision engineered to mount on any standard MIL-Spec AR-15/M16/M4 or HK416 pattern lower receiver without the need for any permanent changes. Simply attach the upper to your standard lower and you’re ready to run belts or magazines!
- Free-Floating Heavy Profile Machine Gun Barrel. Designed for sustained fire and improved heat dissipation, this barrel enhances accuracy and durability under the most demanding field conditions.
- Piston-Driven Operating System. Clean-running and reliable, the patent-pending DFX™ short stroke gas-piston system delivers extreme reliability in even the harshest environments, reducing fouling and maintenance while increasing operational reliability.
- 1913 Picatinny Quad Rail System. Offers robust and versatile mounting options for optics, lasers, lights, grips, and other mission-critical accessories.
- Optional M-LOK Style Handguard. Optional DFX™ handguard lengths and patterns are available as optional accessory items and can be user-installed with basic tools and skill sets.
- Enhanced Full-Auto Bolt Carrier Group. Includes a heavy-duty, properly engineered rotating bolt and barrel extension group to provide for increased strength, safety and longevity. The DFX™ breech bolt system is designed to handle the rigors of high-volume, sustained fire applications.
