MK18 Mod 1 - The Parts

[@OneShot_USMC]

Great video. Thanks for sharing. I finally got my stamp back in January. I built the MK18 Mod 0. Love it. My absolute favorite gun. Look forward to the update.

[@greenhooligan3191]

When's the build video coming?

[@Weakeyedominant]

Awesome build. Looking forward to seeing it finished.

[@n1663r]

Four position buffer tube is 'clone correct'.

[@adrianmedina3625]

Great video bro! Im actually in the middle of building me a MK18 Clone as well. Im curious, where were you able to find that Colt Upper Receiver? As well as your SureFire 4 Prong Flash Hider? If you wouldn't mind messaging me and letting me know id greatly appreciate it. Again keep up the great work!

[@matttaylor7166]

Love the videos please upload some more gun vids!!!

[@earthquakemagoon2505]

Hello HouseHoldOil. I need your help. What is the the complete-length of your MK18 build? I'm asking because I'm submitting an ATF Form 1 application for an SBR on doing a build similar to yours with the Geissle rail and the the "same" Surefire 3 or 4-prong flash suppressor (for future suppressor attachment purchase) and B5 buttstock. I just need to know what the full length measurement of yours is so that I know what to write in box 'F' on the ATF Form 1 application for an SBR manufacture. Thank you for your help!

[@Thunderbolt22A10]

I'd go by what the wiki says on the Mk18

[@westernoutpost4154]

I just put in 26" that was the total length with the sopmod stock collapsed and the DD muzzle device.

[@projekt679]

You my friend are absolutely correct in regards to cloning! There are lots of configurations due to individual unit non standard procurement. Did you have to do anything to the bolt such as exchanging the extractor pin? Great video!

[@Rockstar6111]

I enjoy the clone videos. How do you like the eotech? I like the sights but I don't want to pay so much for them since the army lawsuit. I have heard 10.5" barrels aren't reliable unless they have been suppressed. Im curious to hear reports on your 10.3" barrel. I am waiting on a stamp for an sbr as well. Mine is mark 18 mod 0 inspired. However I will be changing some things such as the hand guard. For the price and availability, i am going to use the Larue tactical 7" quad rail. Are you going to do any load development and accuracy testing? I am excited to see your build and shooting videos of your mk18.

[@brannonpardue1358]

Rockstar6111 Mine is factory built complete upper and lower and has been 100 percent reliable suppressed and un-suppressed. I think some of the cases of them not being reliable is gas port sizes. Heard different things tho but mines been great so far. Very accurate too Shorter barrel helps with having very minimal barrel flex

[@brosenb11]

Its cool, should have kept the pistol! ;)

[@toki89666]

Looks fantastic, but why 2 charging handles?

[@officeroinker440]

He is comparing the two.

[@scottamy6496]

Do people comment without even watching and listening to the video at all? He told you exactly why there were two there...

[@WhoHenry]

Can you have all the parts for an SBR (Unassembled) before filling out a form 1 or have the tax stamp approve? I read somewhere that you cannot do anything until your form 1 and tax stamp comes back approved.

[@HouseHoldOil]

Check out constructive intent. I believe if you have a pistol lower or maybe even a pistol buffer tube you would be ok.

[@flippy51090]

where did you find the info for the parts list?

[@jamesfulmer7080]

How long is the rail?

[@anthonygonzales6029]

You ain’t posted nothing in 2 years. You shoulda just built it and shot it and put all that in one video

[@dragunmane3029]

What buffer weight is that?

[@mikeblack5603]

H3 is clone correct. Btw, a colt barrel is socom clone correct, not DD

[@blackjack3599]

Is Colt overhyped and overpriced?

[@SourPatchPuss]

I feel they are as well. They’re great, but you’re paying for the name it seems to me.

[@mikeblack5603]

Never mind that a socom mk18 has a Colt lower, barrel, ch, bcg, lower parts kit, etc.only thing DD is the RISII in FDE.

[@CB-ux5xc]

So you're a kid that never served in the US armed forces like some of us over 20+ year vets and copying our duty issued guns? They are great but us vets buy totally different firearms for sport and drills at our local range. How many teens/college kids do this? We run a Colt LE6945CK, DDMK18, POF pistol, Noveske pistol. You name it. Us older vets go with magnification because Eotechs really don't work for us anymore. TA11s are king because we love eye relief. Other than that observation, good vid.

[@stephen_crumley]

Chris why are you so taken back by someone building a copy of a firearm created for a specific group of elite soldiers? Do you react the same way when someone clones a basic M4 or M16A2? And yes cloning is a huge industry and tons of people who’ve never been in the military take part in it. You served in that military to protect this man’s right to build this copy, it’s his pursuit of happiness. There’s no need to try to talk down someone for building what he wants because the way you view which firearms should be used at a range is different than what he views them as.

[@ember5935]

You can buy a danieldefence rail from airsoft websites or airsoft walk-in stores.

[@mikeblack5603]

Lol. They're not the same dude. Wow. Different barrel nuts. Quit being poor

[@keenanwalker6597]

Should have went Daniel defense fixed front sight post instead of the KAC flip up sight . Besides that awesome build now you just need a PEQ-15 to complete it

[@ellijahsmith4445]

Then it wouldnt have been clone correct.

[@mikegager]

lets be honest.... the rail is the only thing required for a mk18 clone.

[@Thunderbolt22A10]

not if you want to be correct lmao

[@mikegager]

@@Thunderbolt22A10 never going to know from a distance

[@Thunderbolt22A10]

@@mikegager good thing cloners aren't only going for that
