Don't you mean "wtb DD rail for mk18 build."



...don't take that comment seriously.

It'll be called an MK18c - for custom because designations aren't for me.

I see 9" ones in stock that are M-Lok... will the 1/2 inch be a deal breaker?

I love my 9" MI, if you're interested in those. Should be easy to find. Here it is on my 10.5" for reference. Super light. 7.1oz with the nut.

I looked at that...and you know I am considering one to make a lightweight build out of.

I can't find a 9" mlok but the keymod is in stock at primary arms. The other ones I considered are the PWS 9.75 inch and a 9" SLR lite. Held the SLR and MI side by side and the SLR just wasn't for me. It's aesthetically pleasing, but something about it made me draw to the MI. Not exactly sure what.

Here is one of the other 9" ones in stock that is pretty close to the MK4.

They have a few others too with slightly different designs. Several are in stock.

The M-LOK version of the MK4 has not been released yet in 9.5". Deliberated Dynamics has both colors in-stock of the Keymod 9.5" MK4. I've ordered from them before and they were good to deal with then, but their shipping is high.

I am very pleased with my SLR rail. I am using a 14" Solo Lite series (M Lok) on my rifle and I am very pleased with it.

One word on the M Lok though, depending on where you put your gas block it may or may not impede you mounting M Lok accessories in that area. On smaller ID rails it's an issue, and that would include just about anyone who makes one 1.4" ID and smaller rail, regardless of the manufacturer.

There is a clearance issue so take that into consideration when buying a gas block/rail or whatever combo.
