DD MK18 RIS II upper build

**Lawdog-1** · 09-29-09, 01:07

I plan on building a DD MK18 RIS II rail and a 10.3 or 10.5 barrel and a BCM FA BCG. I can't find the photos of the DDMK18 in the past of a clone build using a Colt upper Rec and a Colt 10.3 barrel or a Noveske 10.3 or 10.5 Barrel. Please someone please post photos on here of all the MK18 DD RIS Uppers?

Stick you have enough room to hang a can off the end of that?

Not Stick, but it really depends on the can. I use an AAC M4-2000 Mod 07 with a 10 7/16" barrel and a Mk18 rail. I'm using the Blackout mount and I have about 1/16" room between the can and the rail.

I have a 10.5" Denny's Guns barrel. and bought the DD MK18 rail and wanted to make sure there was enough room to hang a can off it. Now if only my favorite gun store would go Class III/SOT. (Hint, Hint)

Well now I guess I know where to spend more money.

Yes, there is room for a can - the system was designed that way. It's damn near flush when mounted.

This one has a 10.5 in barrel and the Knight's Armament flash hider. Lower is the usual M16A1, with SOPMOD stock, H3 buffer and CS buffer spring.

I don't know the exact ROF, but it was noticeably faster than the Minimi we had running in the adjacent lane. It handles like a dream.

Anything else?
