- description
There are two ways to keep a gas belt-fed running. Carry spare reservoirs and swap them, or move the gas off the gun entirely and feed it down a line. This is the second approach, and on a support gun it is the one that makes sense — the weight comes off the receiver and goes onto your webbing, where you were carrying it anyway.
The module comes with the gas tube and connector, so the plumbing is in the set rather than something to source separately. Over the top goes a woodland camouflage nylon cover, and a plastic dummy 5.56 chain runs from the pouch, which is what stops it looking like a fuel line taped to a machine gun.
VFC publish it as a 12kg module. They do not explain what the figure measures, so we are repeating it as printed rather than telling you what it means.

Good to know before you buy
The 12kg figure is published without a unit explanation. It is not a BB count and it is not the weight of the pouch, and beyond that we are not going to guess.
The tube and connector are included, so this is a complete feed rather than a pouch you then have to plumb.
Frequently asked questions
What does the 12kg rating refer to?
VFC print the figure and nothing beside it. We have not found it documented, so we are quoting it rather than interpreting it. Ask us and we will chase it up.
Do I need anything else to run it?
The gas tube and connector come with the module, so the feed is complete as supplied.
Is the dummy chain functional?
No, it is for appearance. It is what keeps the setup looking like a belt-fed rather than a hose.
Will it fit anything other than the M249?
VFC list it for the M249 SAW GBB and nothing else, so that is as far as we will go.
