The Mark 18 was used primarily on small boats or in fixed positions such as bunkers. The US Army mounted some on M151A1 Jeeps for patrols; their primary users were the so-called "river rats" and the SEALs. They could be mounted on M2HB, M60, M1919 tripods, or pintle mounts, [2] but could not be fired without such a mount. [citation needed]

The CQBR features a 10.3 in (262 mm) length barrel (similar to the Colt Commando short-barreled M16 variants of the past) which makes the weapon significantly more compact, thus making it easier to use in, and around, vehicles and in tight, confined spaces.
