Someone ran an AAC M4-1000 can on their MK18 10.3" upper.
It was a really tight fit, looked great. I'll try to find you a picture. Due to how short the barrel is there might be a fitment issue with other cans. Here's a picture of someone running an NT4 can on their 10.3" DD

I sold the upper, but it ran fine suppressed when I had it. Unsuppresed out of the box it had extraction issues, which were fixed by a BCM extractor upgrade kit.

Running a Gemtech G5 on my factory MK18, no problems at all so far.
I have tried a variety of ammo from Wolf to 855, no issues. |

I was going to go with this setup but I heard its harder on the CAN and its isn't as quiet... So I went with the 11.5"!

I cant tell any difference with a 10.5" to a 20" barrelled AR suppressed, sound and tone are the same at the ear with the action noise. As far as harder on the can I think it depends on the can. Ive seen pictures of AAC cans blast baffle eroded, and other brands that show no signs of use other than carbon when used in conjunction with a 10" barrel and flash hider. |

All of our salesguys are issued Daniel Defense Mk18s.
We've got a bunch of them, mostly with TREK and TREK-T suppressors, some with G5 silencers... they all get shot a lot at demos. We went with them because they last without skipping a beat through long range days, etc. and are really nice, lightweight hosts. I've got a couple other DD rifles, really like them, never had a hiccup with the 16 or 12" ones I shoot.

So, Kel, is there enough room on the DD Mk18 to mount a Quickmount and my Quicksand...it looks like it might JUST fit. Or maybe
I could use my thickest Gemtech shim to make the Quickmount stick out a tiny bit. |

Should fit. Yeah, you have to use the thick shim washers, it's a close fit.
