They&#8217;ve released a version of their DDM4&#8211;the V11 Pro&#8211;that is specifically designed for competitive shooters. This is a bit of a departure for Daniel Defense, but a no-brainer, as competitive shooters have been using their guns now for years.<\/p>\n<h2>The DDM4V11 Pro<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>LOWER RECEIVER: Mil-Spec with Enhanced Flared Magazine Well and Rear Receiver QD Swivel Attachment Point. CNC Machined of 7075-T6 Aluminum, Type III Hard Coat Anodized<\/li>\n<li>UPPER RECEIVER: Mil-Spec with Indexing Marks and M4 Feed Ramps. CNC Machined of 7075-T6 Aluminum, Type III Hard Coat Anodized<\/li>\n<li>TRIGGER: Geissele Automatics Super Dynamic 3 Gun Trigger<\/li>\n<li>BARREL: Chrome Moly Vanadium Steel, Cold Hammer Forged, 1:7 twist, 18\u2033 S2W Profile, MP tested, and Salt Bath Nitride Finished<\/li>\n<li>GAS SYSTEM: Pinned Low Profile Gas Block CNC Machined of 4140 hardened steel and Mil-Spec Heavy Phosphate Coating, Rifle Length, Direct Impingement<\/li>\n<li>MUZZLE DEVICE: Daniel Defense Muzzle Climb Mitigator, Gen II, 17-4 PH Stainless Steel, Salt Bath Nitride Finished<\/li>\n<li>BOLT CARRIER GROUP: M16 Profile, Mil-Spec MP Tested, Chrome Lined, Properly Staked Gas Key<\/li>\n<li>BUFFER: H Buffer<\/li>\n<li>SIGHTS: Sold Separately<\/li>\n<li>HANDGUARD: Daniel Defense SLiM Rail\u2122 15.0, CNC Machined of 6061-T6 Aluminum, Type III Hard Coat Anodized<\/li>\n<li>RECEIVER EXTENSION: 6-Position Mil-Spec 7075-T6 Aluminum<\/li>\n<li>BUTTSTOCK: Daniel Defense Buttstock, Glass Filled Polymer with Soft Touch Overmolding<\/li>\n<li>PISTOL GRIP: Daniel Defense Pistol Grip, Glass Filled Polymer with Soft Touch Overmolding<\/li>\n<li>Made in the USA!<\/li>\n<li>$1,849<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What sets this gun apart? In short, all of the upgrades you&#8217;d want to make to a typical DD rifle (especially for competition shooting) have already been made. The slim rail, the Bravo Company charging handle, the Geissele trigger&#8211;all things that, if purchased separately, would mount up quick. And it has an 18&#8243; hammer forged barrel, too. With the rifle length gas system and the muzzle climb mitigator, this should be a ridiculously easy gun to shoot.<\/p>\n<p>There are bigger things coming, too. Much bigger. Daniel Defense&#8217;s first .308 should be out this spring.<\/p>\n<p>[one_half]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_32935\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2025.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"daniel-defense-shot-show-2015\" title=\"Daniel Defense 3 Gun Rifle &amp; New .308 - SHOT Show 2015\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32935\" title=\"Daniel Defense 3 Gun Rifle &amp; New .308 - SHOT Show 2015\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32935\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2025-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"The new DDM Pro line is thin. \" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2025-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2025-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2025.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-32935\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The new DDM Pro line is thin.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>[\/one_half][one_half_last]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_32936\" style=\"width: 410px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2026.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"daniel-defense-shot-show-2015\" title=\"Daniel Defense 3 Gun Rifle &amp; New .308 - SHOT Show 2015\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-32936\" title=\"Daniel Defense 3 Gun Rifle &amp; New .308 - SHOT Show 2015\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-32936\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2026-400x266.jpg\" alt=\"xxxx\" width=\"400\" height=\"266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2026-400x266.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2026-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/Daniel-Defense-2026.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-32936\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Competition rifles from Daniel Defense?
