Daniel’s V7 is the first rifle in the DDM4 lineup to feature the M-LOK attachment technology with the Daniel Defense MFR XS rail. Built around a cold hammer forged 16″ barrel the V7 has a DD improved flash suppressor to reduce flash signature. The mid-length gas system provides smooth and reliable cycling under any condition and reduces both perceived recoil and wear on moving parts. A free-floating MFR XS hand-guard offers incredible weight savings as well as superior cooling ergonomics and modularity while maintaining the strength and durability expected from Daniel Defense. With the M-LOK attachment points that run along 6-positions and an uninterrupted 1913 picatinny rail on top the V7 has plenty of room for the sights optics and accessories the user may require. The rifle is finished off with the rugged and comfortable Daniel Defense buttstock and pistol grip. The Daniel Defense California compliant design prevents the magazine release button from being engaged while fully assembled locking the magazine into the receiver. To release the magazine from the rifle the shooter will be required separate the upper from the lower by pulling on an extended (rear) takedown pin with an attached cord to make the process easier.
