Only one was marked as a Mk18 Mod 0 (Colt M4A1 lower), All others were not marked Mk18s Mod 0. One had a Colt M16A1 receiver, and other 15 were all Colt M4A1 lowers. I posted of them in this thread at the time if you want to go looking for them.

They definitely show up on Block II shorties every once in awhile. I could find the pics if you need to see them, but they're for sure Kosher in terms of a military optic. They're not part of SOPMOD so the people that have them probably have them either issued through Big Army or their specific unit or whatever else. I don't know if we've ever seen one on a 14.5" build, but that doesn't mean it isn't reasonable to assume they exist given how many we've seen on the 10.3" uppers. |

If you have a DD M4 RIS II, attach a detachable carrying handle to 1/2 the upper receiver and other half to the RIS. Then tighten the screws down alternating screws as you tight. This will help to keep it all aligned. CD |

Thanks guys, decided to run my ta-31rco on my 6920 with ris ii fsp, LMT sopmod and KAC rear 2-600. The FSB ghosting around in the bottom of the acog was kind of annoying but I think I'm gonna deal with it. Pretty minute in reality. Don't worry it's painted and plenty dirty as well.
