You're not really paying for the parts he's upgrading. For instance the safety switch that comes on it is pretty cheap plastic. That radian is definitely an upgrade
Sounds like you hating a bit there bud. He’s got the money, wants to put what he wants on his own gun to make it his……..I don’t see the problem here. It’s not like he’s spending YOUR money 🤷♂️. It’s like buying a brand new Audi and changing the rims and tinting the windows. With your logic, you should just build your own car if you are gonna spend $90k on a car to only change some parts.
imo the only thing that needs to be replaced on the ddm4 is the trigger and charging handle, replacing the pivot pins is a good touch if you plan on using more than one upper on a lower.
you really want to play with the gas block here? a good option would be to leave the stock gasblock and go with an A5 buffer tube/receiver extension, Sprinco green spring, and A5H2 buffer. That will smooth out the classic DD gassing issues with suppression.
My SD-E trigger arrives Monday. Along with the PA 1-6x24 FFP scope with throw ring and American Defense scope mount. And a BCM charging handle. And 20 gen3 PMags. Already put on a VG6 Epsilon break with the cage. Already put on an Olight PL Valkyrie 1500 lumen light with pressure switch. 500 rounds already and not a flaw. Also have Magpul Pro BUISs on them and bought 45° M-Lok pic rails for them once I mount the scope. This gun rocks. I still have 5 ARs that I built and two of mine rock as well. The other ones are just for fun. But out of the box, this DD is the best complete AR I’ve ever owned. I think I’ve bought 12 complete rifles over the past 20 years, built more than 10. This is my favorite one so far. Make an update video when you get it all together.
I used the same grip just without the trigger guard. I love it. Charging handle to me is a must replace because I don't like how the one sided Large latch feels. Thanks
Lol spend 2k on a premium weapon and replace all the parts. I understand the trigger and charging handle (most are milspec) but dang man. U could have bought a diamond back and saved a ton of cash and bought even more upgrades
Hey so how much did the Milspec cerakote version cost you in total? Also did you get this from your local gun shop? Saving up for this debating on the standard black or this one. Thanks.
If you like me who cares about looks and performance, I say go with either this brown or the gray both looks good. Can't go wrong with black but its boring. They are the same price no matter what color, I got it from kyle@ eurooptic he hooked me up but if you have a local shop that you deal with and if the price is right , I'd say go support the local shop and sometimes they have better deals. Either way. Good luck and you will enjoy it.
@@jieevo Thanks for the reply Alpha. Was actually debating on the DDM4V7 or the Galil Ace but an Ar15 like this is just too good to pass up. Do you feel like it's really worth the price though? Also on Daniel Defense site the Milspec version is around 1900, have to ask my local shop tomorrow but I think you may have gotten a bit of a discount there ;). God Bless America.
@@mrmatathadon sorry to say but I don't know much about the galil, I can say is that you must have this DD on your list, it's very nice and light out of the box. Msrp on website is always higher, definitely check out kyle@ eurooptic or have a talk with your favor local gunshop price should be the same no matter what color.
@@jieevo Hey Alpha checked out the EuroOptic site and I must say like dude is this even real? Lol I mean I found the V7 and with shipping its like 1508!? Wow lowest price I've seen so far. I'll be able to get it this coming paycheck if that's the case. Thanks so much for the help Alpha. Btw your V7 looks so badass especially with upgrades added. 10/10 IGN would recommend
@@mrmatathadon I'm glad you found a good deal. Call them up ask for Kyle he can probably hook you up a little more if possible. Good luck ! Thanks for the feedback on mine.
Dude do what you want. Its your money, your gun. Put Christmas light on it if you want. Everyone immediately hates because its not something they would do. To be honest I wouldnt do most of what you did. Trigger, charging handle to start and then maybe over time change some stuff. Thats just me..............not you. Thanks for the video - always good to look at other ideas.
for the average peson, not someone in combat, this is no different then any other hobby like being into cars and stuff...cars are made to drive and race but people love to invest in mods for looks just as much. most cars at car shows are literally never even driven...the gun world is no different and theres nothing wrong with that.... why on youtube watching these videos if your commenting shit like this?? people hate for no reason its so weird...
I know I know, but hey I'm not gonna call you dumb for spending money on what you wanted for dinner last night right? It was your choice and this is mine, enjoy it.
Alpha Nation it is your choice my guy and am not calling u dumb just saying what u did was dumb. For the money u spent on the DD and all those parts u coulda build a better nicer rifle than that DD for bout half the $$ and that’s a fact.
@@JJLiveforChrist I agree, why spend all that money and turn it into a Frakengun DD out of the box is an awesome weapon. Add sights or optics and good to go.
What’s the point in spending almost $2,000 on a rifle, and then swapping everything out. Such a waste of money lol.
You're not really paying for the parts he's upgrading. For instance the safety switch that comes on it is pretty cheap plastic. That radian is definitely an upgrade
I agree with you
@@coolbreeze1674 he paid a premium for a rifle built by Daniel Defense... only to get it home and rebuild it himself lol. So dumb.
@@nkyryry you obviously know nothing about firearms then dumbass

I have the DDM4V7 Custom and it's a fantastic rifle!
I got the 14.5 compete upper. Hey check out radian lower pretty sick. It’s always nice to extra parts .
This is why building your own rifle makes a lot more sense.
Nice video! You have good taste in aftermarket parts.
Upgrades or downgrades???
Geissele has matching take down pins and mag release button that match the maritime
for some reason I thought they came with iron sights . I have ordered one waiting for it to ship.i think the mil spec+ looks nice
Lol if you will changed all those parts might as well starts with a strip lower
Lol, it started off with a trigger swap then it went out of control. But it's all good. I love it.
imo the only thing that needs to be replaced on the ddm4 is the trigger and charging handle, replacing the pivot pins is a good touch if you plan on using more than one upper on a lower.
Agreed for the most part. The grip-n-rip charging handles on newer DDM4s is really nice. I have one on my M4A1.
Four year update? Picking mine up tomorrow :D
which Battery Assist Device would you recommend for ddm4v7?

The smacking of the lips kills me. Couldn't handle the grossness.
Grow sum balls, u sound like a chic who just seen a spider. Why u looking at gun vids anyway
Does anyone recommend changing the buffer? If so, is it recommended to also change the spring?
Did you ever try out the DD" Grip and Rip charging handle the rifle came with? Just wondering if it was worth the upgrade for the Geissele?
I used the same grip just without the trigger guard. I love it. Charging handle to me is a must replace because I don't like how the one sided Large latch feels. Thanks
If money is not the problem. You can do what ever u want ☝️to your gun.
Expecting delivery of my DD V7 LW tomorrow. Got all of my add ons already. Can't wait!
You should’ve went government profile bro. You effed up
Lol spend 2k on a premium weapon and replace all the parts. I understand the trigger and charging handle (most are milspec) but dang man. U could have bought a diamond back and saved a ton of cash and bought even more upgrades
I don’t get changing the receiver extension at all. PWS is a serious downgrade from DD OEM.
Adding needless parts just to tinker.
But then it would be a diamondback and not a DD
Do you have an Instantgram?
Sorry, I don't.
Should I replace the upper of my M&P sport tactical for a DDM4V7 upper?
No then you still have a cheap crap lower. Just buy a complete daniel defense.
@@hurricane8634 hahaha year right lower works fine dd fanboy
Do you prefer the ssa-e or sd-e?
I personally like the SD E better
This guy just built a Geissle rifle. He doesn't need to buy a DD. HAHAHA. Good video though. My man replaced everything.

Man I couldn't handle that vertical grip being so far in front. Lol
I’m assuming he just bought the rifle, that’s the way Daniel defense puts the on from th factory
It's not brown...it's tactical hersheys
Dude do what you want. Its your money, your gun. Put Christmas light on it if you want. Everyone immediately hates because its not something they would do.

A coke nail dude lol.....
Come on... clip that thing fam....😆
Don't be a weirdo lol....❤
Also man guns are for shooting not looks
Lol, why not both ?
matthew grow who said you can’t make a gun look how you want?
Disagree.

Hard to listen to all over the place
WTF ? you shoulda just built another rifle with all those parts man that is just dumb lmfao !

@@stevenmorgan8223 very true, and thats all she wrote!! but I do have to say also in all fairness, to each his own.
I’d rather have a 400 dollar AR and 1500 dollars worth of ammo than this overpriced crap.
