Details

- Anotha OneFirst Part of this review goes out to the Shipping, Sales, and Technical support teams. AAA++ for finding issue related to me getting my product.
Now… i’ve been on waiting list for when the v7 pistol comes back in stock. was the wait worth it…. YES YES it was. The best quality that far exceeds being labeled as Mil Spec. This weapon is a quality crafted tac driver. DD knows what matters when it comes to comfortability, precision, and design. tight tolerances where need be and smooth operation that makes you want to indulge your time away at the range.
many more purchases in the future… I’m not just a fan boy…. i’m a junkie now.Posted on
- Like my 1st one so much I had to buy a secondI got both of them before the "brace rule". I got mine first, took my wife shooting with it and had to get her one a week later. She typically a long range shooter (loving the 338 LM) but these pistols are the most fun firearms we have at the range. The build quality is impeccable, toying with the idea of upgrading triggers but probably won't. These were our 1st venture into AR pistols and worth every penny. As a lefty I thought the casing extraction might be an issue but not at all. We've created a whole new set of shooting games from 25 to 100 yards. They are lightweight, well balanced, reliable and the envy of our adult children. We love, love, love the DDM4v7P. Our 1st Daniels but not our last. Great Job DD!!

- First DanielI was on the fence about grabbing a DD. Heard good stuff but never witnessed it for myself. First impressions were great. Got home, took it apart, and inspected everything. Amazing attention to detail and excellent fitment. The only semi small issue is not having an adjustable gas block. For the price, it would’ve been nice. Almost seems like a give in for 300BLK. But not a big deal. Anyways great firearm. Customer for life.

- So Amazing I had to buy 2I purchased the V7p as a Christmas gift for myself. I slapped a Razor AMG on top and took it to the range. Amazing accuracy. My wife is also a firearms enthusiast but showed no interest in the "lil gun" (for context: We shoot long range with a pair of high end 338's). After a couple mags I recognized that gleam in her eye and I sure wasn't giving her my V7p. My stocking dealer had one rushed. I upgrade to an Eotech and gave her the Huey. Definitely a "you get what you pay for" scenario. Looking at suppressors now. I married a woman who'd rather get a firearm than diamond earrings #HitTheJackpot #Daniel4Life

- DD has done it again!Many people think DD is a big overpriced for what you get. However, they aren’t! You may not get a geissele trigger, heavier buffer with the rifle for 1700+ ect. What you do get is QUALITY over quantity. Most off your get GRADE A customer service. With the right ammo, these gun are shooting sub MOA!!! Plus they are tier 1 platforms that are battle proven. I sent my first V7 in for repairs after 2500+ rounds with failure to feed/double feeds issues. DD addressed the issue within a weeks time after sending it in.
A no questions asked barrel replacement, along with a new gas system, BCG and the weapon performed like new. I can’t speak highly enough about how much they care for their customers. I have yet to shoot my V7s but I know it will outperform the competition as usual. That’s what keeps me coming back for more! Is it worth it? Is your life and the lives of those you care about? If yes, then yes, DD is the one for you!Posted on
- 10.3" excellent firearmFit is excellent. I agree with another review - an adjustable gas block would be better for what I need, but it is nowhere near worth docking a star. Runs great & zero feed issues ~ 1000 rounds so far. I was a little surprised there was no "break-in" time as this thing is very tight tolerance. The 9" rail is perfect. Great balance. Everything is subjective, but holy cow I have shot some tight groups with it. The charging handle is ported/machined to divert gas. It is very easy with quick mag changes- I didn't think I would notice, but I do like the DD magazine well modification. I did put a SD-3G trigger in it. Most shooters will personalize their M4-ish firearms anyway, so as far as this factory DDM4V7(p) goes- it is near perfect.

- Fantastic AR Pistol!Everything from the quality, to the features, and the look and feel of this AR pistol has made this my #1 go-to for home defense. I quickly slapped the trifecta of mods on to the gun, tac light, red dot, and a sling and it’s my favorite AR to shoot. I highly recommend this AR Pistol to anyone.
