Description
As is the case with all belt-fed weapons, the M134D’s feed system is sensitive to mislinked ammunition. Travel-induced vibrations, mishandling, etc. may cause belted rounds to shift in the links. When a round shifts, it moves out of alignment (either fore or aft) in relation to the other rounds in the belt. When the belt becomes too wide to enter either a feed chute or the feed port on the weapon itself, a feed stoppage ensues. The cause of this occurrence is often undetermined.
Features:
- Funnel-shaped interior
- Easily installed at the exit of the magazine
- Improperly linked rounds are repositioned prior to entering the feed chute
The Dillon Aero Round Repositioner mitigates a common source of weapon malfunction through efficient and robust design.
