  • Patent number: 11774203
    Abstract: A link feed assembly. There is: a bolt carrier near a chamber of a modular weapon system; an infeed ramp, coupled to a first side of a weapon frame near the chamber; an outfeed ramp, coupled to a second side of the capon frame near the chamber and opposite the infeed ramp, positioned to form a space between the infeed ramp and the outfeed ramp; and a feed arm assembly coupled to the weapon frame and extending over the space between the infeed ramp and the outfeed ramp, the feed arm assembly functionally coupled to the bolt carrier such that cycling of the bolt carrier forward and backwards causes cycling of the feed arm assembly in a circuitous motion, the feed arm including a grabbing protrusion that is shaped to grab a top portion of a link during cycling of the feed arm assembly.
