The Daniel Defense DDM4 V7 Pro delivers precision and reliability with its cold hammer forged barrel and enhanced ergonomics. This 5.56x45mm NATO rifle features an 18-inch barrel optimized for accuracy at extended ranges while maintaining the modularity that makes the V7 platform adaptable to multiple shooting disciplines.
What Makes This Different
The V7 Pro distinguishes itself from standard AR-15 platforms through Daniel Defense's proprietary MFR (Modular Float Rail) system and cold hammer forged barrel construction. Where typical rifles use standard phosphate finishes, this model features Rattlecan Cerakote coating that provides superior corrosion resistance and reduced visual signature. The 18-inch barrel length strikes an optimal balance between velocity retention and maneuverability that 16-inch barrels cannot match.
Key Features
- Cold hammer forged 18-inch barrel with 1:7 twist rate for superior accuracy and barrel life
- MFR 15.0 M-LOK handguard provides 15 inches of accessory mounting space
- Rattlecan Cerakote finish offers enhanced durability and weather resistance

Field testing demonstrates consistent sub-MOA accuracy with quality ammunition, making this rifle suitable for precision shooting competitions, designated marksman roles, and long-range hunting applications. The mid-length gas system cycles reliably across temperature extremes while the Cerakote finish maintains its protective properties through thousands of rounds. The extended handguard accommodates bipods, lights, and optics mounting solutions without compromising balance.
