Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 5.56x45mm 16-inch Rifle, Black

The Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 is a 5.56x45mm NATO semi-automatic rifle (Daniel Defense part no. 02-128-02081-047) built around a mid-length AR-15 platform designed for everyday reliability. Daniel Defense pairs a 16-inch cold hammer-forged barrel with a free-float M-LOK handguard for a lightweight, accurate setup. It suits home defense, range work, and general-purpose duty use where a dependable direct-impingement AR-15 is the right tool. The 6-position collapsible stock and SoftTouch overmolded grip let shooters adjust length of pull and keep a secure hold in any condition.
