In the Pic's of the real MK18 What is the cut on the bottom of the FH for? Bottle opener? Wire cutter?

I'm assuming it's a feature designed to accept Knight's sound suppressor because that's why they use this particular flash hider.

Ah! Makes sense! Thanks.

I apologize for the late reply; I just saw this thread and thought some might like additional details.

koalorka is correct. The notch in question located is at the 6 o'clock position on the face of the flash suppressor [FS]. Its purpose is to ensure that the issued KAC QDSS-NT4 sound suppressor [Part Number: 96062, NSN: 1005-01-437-0324] is correctly indexed, or aligned, on the firearm. There is a corresponding pin at the 6 o'clock position interior of the can, which mates with the notch on the FS and ensures that the can is always installed 'right side up' and correct on it's axis. The FS itself is very well engineered and the notch is one of several features present. Hope this helps.

NECRO Thread redux! I changed my original post to show my MK18 with its updated specs...no cut downs now, just all Stag goodness.

Back in the days special forces used 11.5'' ARs now they use 10.3''. What is the advantage of the 1 inch shorter barrel ???

No time till Tues. I gotta load a bunch of ammo and off to a match this weekend. Then beers with the guys on Monday when I get back.

What's with loading ammo - don't you just pour the little white BBs in the mag?

Loading ammo for me means taking it from the lock-up, loading it into the truck, and driving out to the range.

The mag holds the batteries, the BBs go in the PVS2 box.

They find other ways to really screw us over.
