Details
The DD4 RIII S AR15 style firearm features a fully ambidextrous lower that allows both left- and right-handed shooters to operate the bolt catch, safety selector, and magazine release without having to move or remove their dominant hand from the rifle’s grip, while its GRIP-N-RIP Charging Handle is fully ambidextrous as well. A 10.5 inch RIS III rail—modeled after the revolutionary RIS II two-piece handguard developed for SOCOM—features M-LOK attachment for lighter weight and surrounds a free-floating, Cold Hammer Forged 11.5 inch Government Profile barrel. Along with the increased control provided by the ambidextrous lower, this short-barreled rifle delivers optimal maneuverability, reliability, accuracy, and terminal ballistics using a wide variety of ammunition, while its carbine length gas system provides smooth, reliable cycling under harsh conditions and reduces perceived recoil. This rifle also comes with the ergonomic Daniel Defense Buttstock and Pistol Grip.
