DDM4 Hunter | 18"

DDM4®Hunter 5.56 (Kryptek Highlander)

Precise, rugged, and powerful: The Hunter series from Daniel Defense combines Daniel Defense’s proven designs and perfectly adapts them to the needs of modern hunters. With an 18-inch cold-hammered barrel, the Hunter 5.56 delivers precision and accuracy for a wide variety of projectiles. The barrel and mid-length gas system are protected by the MFR 15.0 free-float handguard. With a full-length Picatinny rail on top and M-LOK mounting points on the sides and bottom, the handguard provides ample space for accessories that may be required for hunting.

The barrel is threaded 1/2x28 TPI and features a knurled thread protector that can be easily removed if a suppressor or other muzzle device is to be attached. The Hunter 5.56 comes standard with a Geissele Super Semi-Automatic, a two-stage trigger, and an ambidextrous safety selector. The independent, ambidextrous GRIP-N-RIP charging handle allows for operation by both left- and right-handed shooters. Additionally, the Hunter features the Daniel Defense buttstock and pistol grip and is finished in a striking hydro-dip Kryptek Highlander camouflage pattern.
