The Daniel Defense DDM4 V7S is the 11.5" short-barreled variant of the flagship DDM4 V7 platform, chambered in 5.56 x 45 NATO / .223 Remington. Engineered for maximum maneuverability in confined spaces and tactical applications, it retains the full Daniel Defense DNA : free-floating Cold Hammer Forged barrel, MFR 10.0 M-LOK handguard, Daniel Defense Flash Suppressor and full in-house furniture. Made in the USA, it is the reference short-configuration AR-15 for demanding sport shooters and professionals.

The V7S combines the proven DDM4 system reliability with an 11.5" barrel and a carbine-length gas system : smooth cycling even under sustained fire, minimal footprint, superior ergonomics in constrained environments. The MFR 10.0 M-LOK handguard and 11.5" barrel ensure broad compatibility with most muzzle devices and sound suppressors on the market.
