The Daniel Defense MK18 pistol, equipped with the SB Tactical SOB Pistol Stabilizing Brace and Law Tactical GEN3M folding stock adapter, is a variation of the MK18 SBR, which has been extremely popular within the law enforcement and special operations communities. This firearm is classified as a pistol and not a short barreled rifle (NFA regulated items require ATF approval and a tax stamp). The daniel defense MK18 pistol features the railed forend daniel defense currently provides to Ussocom and a 10.3 inches cold hammer forged barrel, the same length commonly used for CQB operations. The MK18 RISII features the bolt-up system and has been rigorously tested prior to fielding by Ussocom. The new independently ambi GRIP-N-RIP charging handle accommodates left- and right-handed shooters and is engineered for suppressed fire, with anti-gas features that redirect gas flow upward and away from the face and operator. This pistol comes equipped with the rugged and comfortable daniel defense pistol grip with an integral trigger guard and soft touch overmolding. The MK18 pistol is unmatched in size, weight, and performance.
