Overview

Daniel Defense MK18 RIII URG Features The heart of this upper is the carbine-length gas system chosen for its dependable operation in short-barreled and suppressed applications. The RIS III handguard finished in FDE provides extensive M-LOK real estate for lights lasers or foregrips while reducing weight and improving ergonomics over legacy quad-rail systems. The GRIP-N-RIP ambidextrous charging handle ensures confident manipulation for both left- and right-handed shooters even under pressure. With no sights included this upper is ready for customization with your preferred optics or BUIS. The receiver is finished in matte black contrasting against the FDE rail for a battle-proven two-tone appearance. This upper fits any MIL-SPEC AR-15 lower making it an excellent upgrade for CQB builds or duty rifles.
