Daniel Defense DD4 Carbine Mk18 RIII, 5.56mm, 10.3" Barrel, 1- 32rd Magazine, Black/FDE, Short Barreled Rifle

The Daniel Defense MK18 RIII in Flat Dark Earth handguard and black receivers delivers the iconic MK18 configuration trusted by elite units worldwide, now enhanced with the lightweight, M-LOK-equipped RIS III rail system. Retaining the exact 10.3" Cold Hammer Forged, chrome-lined government-profile barrel that made the MK18 the gold standard for CQB, this factory SBR pairs SOCOM-proven free-float performance with modern versatility: uninterrupted 1913 top rail, seven M-LOK surfaces, and dual integral QD sling points. The two-tone FDE rail on black anodized receivers gives it an aggressive, purpose-built look that stands out on the range or in the stack.

Every critical component is pure Daniel Defense quality: fully Mil-Spec 7075-T6 receivers with flared magwell, independently ambidextrous GRIP-N-RIP charging handle, H-buffer-tuned carbine gas system, properly staked chrome-lined M16 BCG, and Daniel’s legendary ergonomic furniture. At only 5.73 lbs and collapsing to 26.75", it remains one of the fastest-handling, most reliable 5.56mm SBRs on the market while delivering rifle-grade accuracy and terminal effect.

Ships complete with a 32-round Daniel Defense magazine, and a full-latch impact plastic case. 100% made in the USA and backed by Daniel Defense’s lifetime satisfaction guarantee.
