- Fast and SmoothThis rifle quickly has become my favorite. Top quality like all DD, it’s fast and smooth. Suppressed it really shines. 147 Grain Shhhhhh…. One note… mine will not run factory CZ magazines… the 20 and 30 round fail to feed the 2-3 round every time. The provided Magpul’s 35rd work flawlessly… like I’ve never had a failure using them. This one sits right up front with my MK18. Go Dawgs!!!
