theres an almost 600 page thread with info/pics. but basically:

A1 lower
10.3" upper
KAC RIS
Aimpoint Comp M2
Wilcox mount
Surefire 962
LMT fixed rear sight
CQD sling mounts
LMT Gen 1 Sopmod stock
KAC VFG
KAC NT4 Flash Hider


That is for the MK18 Mod 0, the Block 1 CQBR can look pretty much identical, except for some small variations.

This.

There's been so much tomfoolery in the clone threads it's hard to decipher what correct is.

This is correct.

This would render something like this.







The DPMS lower I have is from my first AR in 2004. It was the 11.5" version with a 5.5" FH. I eventually SBR'd it and removed the FH. Later, I decided to go the Mk18 route and bought the LMT upper and changed out everything else. The only things left that are DPMS is the lower and FCG. After all these years, the trigger is nice and smooth. Maybe one day, I will do a Nodak Spud NDS-16A1 lower and SBR it to replace the DPMS lower. I did replace the A2 lower I had on my Mk12 Mod 0 with one of these lowers.

With the A2/M4 pattern lower that would more appropriately be a CQBR. For the OP, the CQBR and Mk18 are primarily different in their lower receivers, as the Mk18s were built on available A1 lowers, while the CQBRs were originally a second CQB upper that accompanied a SOPMOD M4. Any of the early SOPMOD accessories would be correct on both.

This is correct. The Mk18 Mod 0 and CQBR used a 10.3" barrel, but the LMT 10.5" upper was known to be used on some of the CQBRs. In light of the A2 lower and LMT 10.5" upper, mine would be more of a CQBR than a Mod 0.

S**t you're right!! It's an old pic, here you go. Also another thing that is commonly missed is the RIS on the Mk18 and RAS on the CQBR.
