Abstract
A cartridge loop for an ammunition belt having a coupling interface with an opening and a pair of substantially parallel lines side walls having a compliant tab formed therein to deflect easily without deforming the loop when a coupling is engaged in the interface is provided. The compliant tab is formed by a U-shaped cut-out from the loop across the side walls to the front face of the coupling interface. The walls of the interface are separated by a distance and the coupling has first and second ends connected by a link connecting the first and second ends, the first end having a locking head with four sides having a diagonal that forms an interference fit with the compliant tabs formed in the side walls.
