Did we ever figure out where the U marked uppers came from?

I don't remember if this has already been posted. Intersting pictures I found some time ago.

Mk18 mod 0 a2 Lower
Mk18 mod 0 Hydramatic lower (only saw mk12)
Mk18 mod 0 with lower painted with ordinary paint and not the mysterious coating in crane

Unifor (now Brawo) is the consensus. Nothing absolute though.

I think he's referencing the U marked uppers, like the CQBR, 10/14 series uppers.

Correct. When those were sold it was the first and only time I've seen them.

Getting my trio back together.  These were my Afghanistan guns from Nov 17'-May 21'.  Got the middle lower coming back to me in Baghdad along with another Mk44 Minigun.  Just painted the Mk18 Mod 0 upper today.

Looking good CD.  Do you constantly remind yourself, "I got paid for that"?

Fancy upper and lower markings.

Seems like a lot don't run T1s on these anymore? I finally got my brother (who doesn't care about clones) to trade me his Mod1 upper so I need to finish this thing. Trying to decide if I want to try to trade the T1 for an EXPS3-0 or keep it. Will likely end up SBRing it on something other than the poverty pony lower too though there really is nothing wrong with it.

 You don't see them much anymore as the largest user went to the 11.5" URGI for their shorty.  Nothing wrong to keep the T1 for a period correct gun.

T1 is the better lighter optic IMO but, and it's a huge but, the EXPS is the quintessential CQBR optic and looks the best on it.

5th group Larue uppers.  It appears they were packed in possible Colt upper replacement boxes on turn in.

Just ordered one cause I have an extra property marked lower and I know I’ll regret it when they go OOS. Interested to see what shows up.

They didn't last long.  I was at the Dr Office when I noticed the pre-email blast notice and did a cart check to see they had 16.   A smidge later after leaving the doctors office they were OOS already.  I would anticipate another painted drop though.

What can you guys tell me about this full size VFG?  It's not marked with "tangodown" but otherwise looks and feels just like the other full size TD VFGs i've owned.  I believe it is designed for the insight tape switch (vs surefire).

It's the issued TD VFG. You are correct for the pocket for tape switches.

I haven't fingered any of the older VFGs, but THIS THREAD refers to the "ATI" designation as opposed to the current "ITI" part numbered.
