Barrel and Accuracy Engineering
The MK12 is built around an 18-inch Stainless Steel barrel with a chamber formed by Cold Hammer Forging — a process that achieves exceptional chamber-to-bore alignment for tighter groups. A salt bath nitride finish enhances corrosion resistance and surface hardness, contributing to long-term accuracy under repeated use. The barrel is optimized for 223 Remington / 5.56mm NATO ammunition, offering low recoil, wide ammo availability, and effective terminal performance in the intended engagement ranges.
Gas System, Bolt, and Controls
This rifle uses a rifle-length direct impingement gas system paired with the MK12 gas block built to Crane specifications for USSOCOM. The gas block is CNC machined from 416 stainless steel and Black Oxide coated for durability and consistent gas flow. Feeding is handled by an M16 profile bolt carrier group while a Vltor Mod 4 charging handle provides reliable, ergonomic manipulation under stress. The Daniel Defense Improved Flash Suppressor reduces visible signature on rapid strings of fire.
Rail, Trigger, and Ergonomics
The upper receiver features a free-floating DDM4 Rail 12.0 quad rail allowing precise optic alignment and flexible accessory placement. The inclusion of a Geissele SSA1 2-Stage Trigger gives the marksman refined control over shot break for accurate follow-up shots. Complementing the platform are a rugged Daniel Defense buttstock and pistol grip designed for comfort during extended use.
As a Semi Auto category rifle chambered for 223 Rem / 5.56 NATO, this CA-compliant model ships in a 10-round configuration and is priced at $2,398.99. For full specifications and purchase options, View product details and pricing.
