Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 Custom 5.56 NATO Mil-Spec Cerakote AR-15 Rifle

A: Mason, no Sir. The Gas System is a Mid-length Low Profile Direct Impingement Gas Block/System. Cheers and stay safe!

A: No its a DI gun and more importantly for future reference? Daniel Defense does make a gas piston system for any of their AR rifles or uppers etc they never have. https://danieldefense.com/rifles/ar-15-rifles.html They (DD) always made solely DI guns. Stay safe!

A: Mason, no, as others have stated this uses a direct impingement gas system. Hope this helps.

A: Mason, no sir, The DDM4 V7 features a direct impingement gas system, a mid-length gas tube and a pinned low-profile gas block that's CNC machined out of 4140 hardened steel and hard phosphate coated.

A: Hi Norman. This DDM4 V7 comes with (1) 32 rd DD magazine. Yes, it will also accept the standard AR15 30rd magazines, so if you already have them on hand, they will work. If you want extra 32rd mags, they are available here budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/18789/mag+dd+556+32rd+black , Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Hi Norman and welcome. Yes Sir it takes Standard 30rd AR Style magazines as well. There is also a 60rd German Made quad stact AR Magazine that is fantastic : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/132070/ati+atim556s60wmle+s60+schmeisser+223+rem5.56+nato+american+tactical+imports+schmeisser+s60+60rd+black+polymer+detachable+magaz ----- Drum capacity, Stick mag size and wider. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Jason, no this model doesn't include any sights. It does have a picatinny rail to add iron sights or optic of your choosing. Alot of AR-15 style rifles don't include sights anymore because the manufacturer thinks people will upgrade and switch them out anyways. So it's a way to keep the price lower. Hope this helps.

A: Hi Jason and welcome. Sights are not included Sir. I highly recommend the MeproLight Day Night Sights : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/134602/meprolight+403220+flip+backup+sights+2+dot+rear+orange+hyper+bright+front+black --------- Cheers and stay safe!

A: Jason, no sights are included with the DDM4 V7 Custom, with the full length pic rail, you can add the scope/optics of your choice. Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Hi Richard, fortunately it does Sir. On Buds and many other vendor websites and youtube reviews. Cheers and stay safe!

A: Richard, yes this gets good reviews. From PewPew Tactical - "If you got spare cash to drop on a top-of-the-line rifle that will gobble up rounds, the DDM4 V7 has our seal of approval. It's an incredibly solid, high-performing AR-15. " From AmericanFirearms - "The DDM4 V7 offers everything you'd want from a top-tier AR, and while it's not perfect, it's going to give you a level of performance, reliability, and precision that only premium builders can provide." That's just 2 of many good to excellent reviews for this DDM4, there are many more on the web. Stay safe & have a great day!

A: Richard, yes sir, Daniel defense makes great AR-15s. I haven't heard very many compliants about them. I'm part of a AR-15 builders group on facebook and people hold them in high regards. Definitely one of the better options available at the price point. Hope this helps

A: Rick, this is the ddm4 v7 Wich looks like Daniel defense has discontinued. If you go to Daniel defense website and enter the model number (02-128-09380-047) you'll find it or just Google (Daniel defense ddm4 v7) and theirs is the first website. Hope this helps.

A: Hi Rick and welcome to the Buds Community. This is an Exclusive Model made for one year by Daniel Defense. A one off of sorts. Daniel Defense has created an exclusive rifle that features common specs found on the popular DM4V7 along with upgrades that makes this rifle stand above the rest. Featuring a 16" Chrome Moly Vanadium steel barrel and finished in Daniel Defense's proprietary Mil-Spec + Cerakote Finish. The Daniel Defense Exclusive rifle also features a GEN II Muzzle Climb Mitigator and Geisselle SD3G Trigger for a very smooth pull and quick, precise shooting. Another unique upgrade to this rifle is the Ergo Wedgelok rail panel inserts that allow for a better grip on the handguard. Made in the USA. Their current production model is here : https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/22671/daniel+defense+02338047+ddm4+v7+semi-automatic+223+rem+5.56+nato+16+30+1+6-pos

A: The V7 pro is the best (in my opinion) link below
the V7 has a 16" Government Profile barrel with a Daniel Defense Flash Suppressor, (not welded)
the v7 SLW version has a 14.5"" Lightweight Profile barrel with a Pinned and Welded Daniel Defense Flash Suppressor,
the V7 pro has a 18" S2W Profile (Daniel Defense's proprietary Heavy Barrel),Daniel Defense Muzzle Climb Mitigatormuzzle device

A: Jeremy, from what I read really only difference is the custom comes with a Geissele trigger vs milspec on the standard, a Radian charging handle and a muzzle break instead of flash hider, it also has the cerakote finish. Daniel defense makes quite a few models so hard to say if it's better but the Geissele trigger alone on the custom is a huge improvement in my book. So I'd personally go with the custom or the pro model. Hope this helps.

A: Hi Jeremy and welcome. I would get detailed info on the differences directly from Daniel Defense Customer Service at 1-866-554-GUNS (4867). Cheers and stay safe!
