Daniel Defense MK18 Pistol
The Daniel Defense MK18 Pistol is a high-performance semi-automatic pistol chambered in 5.56mm NATO, inspired by the iconic MK18 SBR favored by law enforcement and special operations, offering exceptional versatility for tactical applications, home defense, and range shooting. Featuring a 10.3-inch cold hammer-forged government profile barrel and a black Type III hard-coat anodized 7075-T6 aluminum frame, this pistol weighs 5.85 pounds and measures 28.625 inches overall with an SB Tactical SBA3 Pistol Stabilizing Brace, providing a compact, non-NFA platform ideal for close-quarters scenarios.
This pistol features the Daniel Defense RIS II MK18 handguard with a 6-bolt Bolt-Up System, rigorously tested for USSOCOM, paired with a low-profile gas block and a Daniel Defense flash suppressor to minimize muzzle flash. The independently ambidextrous GRIP-N-RIP charging handle, designed for suppressed fire, redirects gas flow for operator comfort, while the ergonomic Daniel Defense pistol grip with soft-touch overmolding enhances control. Equipped with a 32-round DD magazine, a Mil-Spec M16 bolt carrier group, and Santoprene rail panels heat-resistant to 300°F, it supports customization for night vision or suppressors.
Ideal for tactical operations, home defense, and recreational shooting, the Daniel Defense MK18 Pistol excels in close-quarters environments with its reliable direct impingement system and customizable Picatinny quad rail. Its robust construction and high-performance design make it a top choice for shooters seeking a dependable, versatile firearm for dynamic scenarios.

The Daniel Defense MK18 in FDE is NOT. The pistol brace is black, the lower receiver is black, the pistol grip is black, only the front hand guard is Chocolate Brown. I still like it. The quad rail hand guard is Heavy but, it makes adding accessories easy and fast. The trigger is good but I was expecting better. A Geissele (SDE) enhanced flat face trigger will be install within a week. Daniel Defense Iron Sights, an Eotech and a Surfire light and its ready to go. Is it worth the money? You have to make that decision, I could have three other brand pistols, for the price of this one. 62 gain Green Tips were getting me 3-4 inch groups at 100 yards. Is that me or the gun? Most likely 50/50.
