Another crappy cellphone pic. In the process of acquiring as many Gold parts as possible and scrubbing the color-fill off both sides of the receiver so it at least looks more .gov issued.
I'm really torn on which flash hider to go with - the more traditional old school KAC NT4 or the latest addition - the Surefire SOCOM...  |

I think over the next couple of weeks, I'm going to try to update my Page 2 post, since this is going to be the new CQBR/MK 18 thread with some more history and specific information, and to answer some of the more commonly asked questions, so it'll be accessible pretty early on for new members. Too bad I didn't get "in on one." 
For starters I was going to wirte about the original CQBR program, the SOPMOD program, and the "spin off" of the MK 18 MOD 0. I was also going to cover: "What's a MK 18 MOD 1?" (nothing - doesn't exist) "What's the difference between a MK 18 and a CQBR?" "What about LMT uppers/barrels?" Does anyone have any other suggestions for commonly asked questions - not necessarily "what is the correct part?" specific, but discussion questions? It'll probably take me a while to get this all done, but hopefully it'll look something like the MEU(SOC) .45 thread going in the 1911 section when I'm done with it. Maybe I'll try to extend the treatment in the future to the M4A1 and maybe the SPR, but this is all a long ways off... "IRL" sometimes has to take precedence.

Always love your rifles man! I cant remember if you have the sdn6 or the m42k...If its the sdn-would you mind posting a pic of it on the MOD 0? Im wondering if I should put a mount on my MOD 0 or just stick with mounting the can on the (Mod 1-CQBR?) Im hoping to get the stamp next month so I want to be ready.... OH and DAMN all these pics Im seriously regretting not just getting the NT4 now.....Its been 10 months waiting on the sdn6, and I just started regretting my choice because of this new thread and all the pics!

I think over the next couple of weeks, I'm going to try to update my Page 2 post, since this is going to be the new CQBR/MK 18 thread with some more history and specific information, and to answer some of the more commonly asked questions, so it'll be accessible pretty early on for new members. Too bad I didn't get "in on one."
For starters I was going to wirte about the original CQBR program, the SOPMOD program, and the "spin off" of the MK 18 MOD 0. I was also going to cover: "What's a MK 18 MOD 1?" (nothing - doesn't exist) "What's the difference between a MK 18 and a CQBR?" "What about LMT uppers/barrels?" Does anyone have any other suggestions for commonly asked questions - not necessarily "what is the correct part?" specific, but discussion questions? It'll probably take me a while to get this all done, but hopefully it'll look something like the MEU(SOC) .45 thread going in the 1911 section when I'm done with it. Maybe I'll try to extend the treatment in the future to the M4A1 and maybe the SPR, but this is all a long ways off... "IRL" sometimes has to take precedence.

~Augee I'd be interested to find out more about the use of AAC cans in the wild on this platform. Based on the above pic, it would appear that it was done at least once. I've been pretty much a stickler about the right can for the right platform in these clone threads, as to me it seems to be an integral part of the "look" of the weapon. I know the H&K 416 and SCAR were issued with an AAC can, but I'm not aware of any other platforms that used them. As such, if AAC cans have been used, then which specific model was used? Which branch used them? I think a lot of people would like to know that their M4 2000 would be "clone approved" in these various threads. |

Mines getting closer each day. (wrong receiver and optic) Planning on fixing those after a Surefire 556RC
Thanks for starting the new thread! Dont flame me too hard, I know it isnt 100% just yet but I'm actively working on making it so. (or at least as close as I can afford) I'm not paying for full auto. Love this little gun!

Buy a new one. I just got the ball rolling on my Form 3 for the SOCOM. Plus eFile should have it back by end of summer, much quicker.My wife would literally kill me.....were planning on a kitchen remodel....any extra cash has to go towards that right now Soon though hopefully
All of my clones...... The MOD 0 lower is pending. I'm considering stripping the M4 Block II and doing a Mk12 clone now.....Having the CQBR's pretty much makes the block II obsolete.....I think I'd rather have a bench/precision rifle. |

I don't get how just because a dude started a thread he gets to shut it down 400 pages later.

~Augee It might be cool if you could address the fact that we are chasing a moving target with these weapons. You would certainly have better info than me, but there seems to be a standard set of kit combinations of which we see more often than others (e.g., SU-231, SU-233, LA-5, RIS II) while at the same time there are seemingly random combinations of parts from the SOPMOD kits (e.g., "increment" parts). Here is one of my favorites and a great example:

Would there be any other optic I could use on a MK18 Mod O other than a Comp M2?

Su231 Su231a Su230 Ta01NSN Eotech 511 or 512 Or none at all There is a difference between the "Mk18" and the "CQBR," the former will always have a M68 CCO in a Wilcox mount with LMT rear sight (as is my understanding). ETA: Here is the pic with a DBAL. AAC suppressors and DBALs would make for great GROM HK416 clones if only HK would make 416D uppers available, but that is not a discussion for this thread.
