THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT Question is... Who will have it first? Daniel Defense hasn't confirmed yet, but has said "Sooner than later" Noveske simply says "No ETA, hopefully soon" Palmeto has been saying two weeks for over two months. I'll go with any of the three, but after the two week (two month) wait on Palmetto I would like to give my $ to DD, or Noveske. |

Try Grim Reaper Tactical. It's a one man shop, he might make a one off for you, I know he makes 8, 9, 14.5, and 16 now.

I have a 10.5 on order from Grim Reaper and he will do any kind of custom stuff you want. Mine is a 10.5" with a pistol length gas system but a pinned FSB at the carbine position and threaded in 1/2X36 so I can do a 300 blackout Mk18 Mod0 clone.
He is active duty airforce and the gun thing is a part-time job for him but he seems like a nice guy. Give him a call and see what he tells you. |

Don't forget Wilson Combat.
Also Ballistic Advantage can probably make up what you want. I know LMT is making 300s for the MRP too. The CQB MRP and a 10.5" barrel would be cool, especially in the new LM8 configuration. |

Core15 has a 9.5" if that extra inch doesn't matters

Wilson Combat make an 11.3" match barrel if you can spare another inch. I'm very happy with it, they come in stock every now and then just check their website or give them a shout.

Me? It shipped middle of last week so coming from Oregon should be here probably the end of this week or so. It took him a bit longer as it was a complete custom job as far as length, threading, FSB pinning, etc and it was $300 shipped!

Yes, are you still doing the mk clone? $300 is about $30 extra right? Do you think it would be just as good to buy a longer barrel then have that cut and threaded.

Yes, I'm doing a Mk18 Mod 0.
I'm not sure what his regular price is but mine included the custom length, custom thread pitch, dimple for a low-pro gas block (I provided the block but he has them) and pin the FSB on at the carbine position (he provided the FSB and pins) He told me that he charges by the inch for barrels as it depends how many barrels he can get out of the blank so I would say it's probably going to work out cheaper to go ahead and get what you want from the get go. Give him a call and see what he tells you. He's a nice guy but just know that his is a part time thing for him as he's active duty Air Force so his hours are in the evening only. My barrel should be here any day now and can't wait to get her all built up. |

What's your spec so far?

I'm sorry but are you asking specs on the barrel or what pieces and parts I'm using?
Spikes sbr lower with all the usual Mk18 Mod 0 parts and the barrel mentioned above. I'm all set other than the correct sling mounts and will probably run an ergo grip instead of an A1. I also have a Surefire 951 but will probably switch to a 952. |
