Performance and key features
The MK18 is built around a 10.3-inch Cold Hammer Forged (CHF) barrel—an established length for close-quarters engagements that balances maneuverability with reliable ballistic performance. The 300 Blackout chambering offers subsonic and supersonic flexibility, delivering effective short-range stopping power with suppressed configurations and solid terminal performance with standard loads.
Rail, bolt system, and reliability
This pistol features the Daniel Defense picatinny quad rail and the RIS II with the patented 6-bolt Bolt-Up System, hardware vetted and used by USSOCOM. Those systems provide a stable optic/rail platform and durability under demanding conditions. Classified as a pistol (not an SBR), it avoids NFA transfer complexity when configured as shipped, while still offering operational capability consistent with tactical intent.
Ergonomics, controls, and accessories
The MK18 comes equipped with the SB Tactical SBA3 Pistol Stabilizing Brace with five positions of adjustability and an ambidextrous QD sling swivel point, giving shooters a secure, adaptable interface. The independently ambidextrous GRIP-N-RIP Charging Handle and the ergonomic pistol grip with integral trigger guard and soft-touch overmolding support fast, reliable manipulation for left- and right-handed operators.
As a limited collectible the MK18 is priced at $2799.99 and includes collector packaging and a coin—details prospective buyers can verify on the product page. View product details and pricing
