Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 CA Compliant 5.56NATO 16" 10+1

The Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 CA Compliant is a premium AR-15 rifle chambered in 5.56 NATO, engineered for outstanding reliability, precision, and adaptability. Built to meet California’s compliance requirements, this model features a 10-round capacity and a 16" cold hammer-forged barrel designed for long-term durability and exceptional accuracy. The barrel is finished in a robust black coating and paired with a mid-length gas system, providing smoother recoil and enhanced control during rapid fire ideal for both tactical scenarios and competitive shooting. At the center of the rifle’s modularity is the lightweight Daniel Defense M-LOK rail system, offering ample room for mounting optics, lights, and other accessories while maintaining a slim, ergonomic profile. The DD Flash Suppressor reduces muzzle flash for improved visibility and quicker target reacquisition.

This CA-compliant variant comes equipped with the ergonomic Daniel Defense Buttstock and Pistol Grip, delivering a secure, comfortable hold in demanding environments. Weighing just 6.2 pounds, the DDM4 V7 CA Compliant strikes an ideal balance between portability and rugged durability. It also includes Daniel Defense’s ambidextrous GRIP-N-RIP Charging Handle, precision CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminum, with latches crafted from 6061-T6 aluminum and secured by heavy-duty stainless steel roll pins. A Type III hard-coat anodized finish ensures maximum longevity. As required for California compliance, the rifle ships with a 10-round Magpul PMAG, and magazine changes must be performed by pulling the takedown pin to separate the upper from the lower, allowing the user to release the magazine.

Whether you’re honing your skills at the range or working in demanding environments, the DDM4 V7 CA Compliant is built to deliver exceptional performance and reliability.
