For those in the market for an AR-15 that's designed to run in any kind of situation, from range use to personal protection, Daniel Defense makes a go-to gun. The Daniel Defense DDM4V7 is one of the company's many stand-out models, built with heightened features that make it a cut above in the AR world. Each Daniel Defense DDM4V7 is constructed with a mid-length gas system, which works to provide smoother, more-reliable cycling. This both lessens felt recoil and reduces the wear on internal components, leading to longer service life. The rifle is also equipped with the company's free-float MFR XS 15.0 handguard, which sheds weight, offers greater cooling and provides attachment points for M-LOK accessories.

Of course, at the heart of the Daniel Defense DDM4V7 is the company's cold hammer-forged barrel, which is topped by an improved flash hider designed by Daniel Defense. The company's own pistol grip and buttstock are included, as well as a dark-brown Cerakote finish.
