Daniel Defense DD4 RIII 16"
The AR15-style DD4 RIII ambidextrous rifle was designed to meet the needs of both right- and left-handed shooters in popular shooting sports as well as for tactical and defensive applications. The fully ambidextrous lower receiver allows the shooter to operate the bolt catch, safety switch, and magazine release without having to remove their dominant hand from the rifle’s grip, while the GRIP-N-RIP loading handle is also fully ambidextrous.
Ambidextrous
M-LOK handguard
Extremely lightweight
A 12.5-inch lightweight RIS III rail—modeled after the revolutionary two-piece RIS II handguard developed for SOCOM—features an M-LOK mounting system for reduced weight while also allowing for the attachment of the M203 grenade launcher.
It surrounds a 16-inch cold-forged Government-profile barrel, and our medium-length gas system—known for smoother recoil—contributes to this rifle’s accuracy by enabling rapid yet precise burst fire. This rifle also comes with the ergonomic Daniel Defense buttstock and pistol grip.
