Is that the MK 18 MOD 0? Or the Colt R933? Or some other variant? Thanks!

Not original Mk18 but it has some MK18 Mod0 features: 10.5" barrel with standard M4 front post sight, chopped rear sight, Crane stock, RAS Picatinny rail handguard?, Surefire M951 light?, that box-squarish thing on the left side of the handguard rail looks like an AN/PEQ-2 and maybe some forehand grip-Knights Armament? (not visible). Plus an EOTech 552.

They are not 'true' Mk18's but close. The rear is not an LMT sight but an RRA Dominator mount in conjunction with an Eotech 552. Also, I'm almost certain that the rail system is a Surefire model and not RAS.

Good eyes Steel-Weasel. I couldn't tell what rear BUIS that was, same with the rail handguard. . .

Hehe...my eyes have nothing to do with it. I just know what they use.

So what is it? A full-auto RRA carbine similar to the Colt R933? A short version of the semi LAR-15 that the normal agents carry? Or what? Thanks!

RRA only supplied semi-auto carbines to the DEA and FBI. HRT uses colts with 10" barrels. Don't know if the barrels are LMT or not.
