I agree
One of the best I’ve seen. Well done.
Thanks!
you must not see a lot
@@GnolomwebChinese trash on a 2k rifle lol
carry on with this set up. pure eyegasm!!
Thanks!
I took the front finger ledge from the Magpul handstop you're using and put it in front of a BCM Gunfighter on my MK18. Love it. Really lets you get your hooks into the rifle. Nice setup.
@@gwottraplord yes sir
Beautiful build my guy, gonna get me one of these very soon
Thank you!
I've been trying for ages, dont think you can anymore.
@@anthonyr587I got one coming lol
Love the holosun 510c it's so crisp and I prefer it more than my Army issued Eotech I had on my duty rifle
eotech is still far superior... you know that when it comes dowwn to it your eotech will outlast any holosun its only for target plinking
Ditch that buttstock and go with a CQB Gen 7 by Maxim Defense or Gen 6. I have a good friend of mine who builds custom PDWs and the quality is even better than DD or any high-end top dollar company. Oh, and they are available in 9mm, 45 ACP, 10 mm, 7.62x39, 5.56 nato, 300 BO, and a few others. All of them are Cerakoted and slick-baked with custom paint jobs, with matching eye protection, ear protection, two mags, and a custom range case. He does them with suppressors or full auto legally if you have the correct paperwork. Want them in SBR, no problem, he does those too. Goddess Arms is located in Deep Creek, Maryland. Seriously, you will fall in love with his builds.
Cool I’ll check it out
@ExplorersWorkbench please do. The owner and builders name is Rob Lindsey. You will get along great with him. He was actually looking to do something on YT with his gun shop if I remember correctly. He's one of the most honest, fair, trustworthy, and funny people you will ever meet. His builds are the absolute best quality and crastmanship you'll find. Anyways, he has a lot more than the AR builds. Let me know what you think. Thanks for your time.
@@mjf7662 sounds good
CQB gen 7 is trash.
Really want to get 1 of these. Every time I look they are out of stock. Great review.
Thank you! Keep searching. One will turn up.
Buy local!
build your own or buy PSA.
@@Gnolomwebgreat advice ..
Just build it with a PSA and throw a BA or criterion barrel and Bcm bcg
I owned one of these a while back. Absolutely regret getting rid of it. 😞
Ya if I could own only 1 Ar-15 it would be this.
Why? it's over priced. Building better is even cheaper.
@@Gnolomweblol your just poor😂
you must upgrade the suppressor to an HUXWRX (formerly OSS) flowthru.. barely any blowback at all it's amazing
Yes I’ve heard
isnt the life of flow through cans only like 5-6k rounds?
@@Kaotix_music I’m not sure
@@Kaotix_music according to OSS(HUXWRX) the older model I have from when they were OSS (HX-QD 556 TI) is rated at excess of 40,000 rounds.
Surefire already announced the RC3. Bout to put Huxwrx outta business.
Nice review. I have this upper in 14.5 and 10.3. Holosun is very good I have a couple but imo Eotech Exps 2 or 3 is a beast also the Aimpoint PRO is another good rds. DD is one of the best out there. Also their customer service is top notch.
Nice!
😂😂
I have this with a brace, i love the Quadrail! And the fit is awesome 👌
Im trying out a LEP laser light on mine now.
nice!
Beautiful gun I love both my d. D's.
And you are correct never had a problem with either one
Thanks!
What's to love? over gaassed over priced. ... I've also made mistakes. very expensive mistakes.
@@Gnolomwebyou are in every comment talking trash, did DD hurt you little guy?
Nice build. Love the brown. I want to do a recce build in it. Try a JP silent capture spring with the Law folder adapter and a Lantac domed cam pin. Smooth as hell. I also went for a Superlative Arms piston kit, so no blowback or buildup in the receiver which makes cleaning much easier. It has gas restriction and bleed off and is suppressor friendly - though I haven’t personally used it with one. I only wish it was compatible with 300blk, especially for future suppressor dreams.
Altogether I will say it is a pricey core, but I love it.
Ok great info. Thanks!
Whatcha recce-ing?
This guy doesn't fuck. He inserts his tactical unit.
Yes sir
@@ExplorersWorkbench Atta boy 💪
@@ExplorersWorkbench Wicked nice setup bro
@@hermitrob5481 thanks I love it!
Man that looks like a badass rifle
Thank you. It is.
looks. take that 510c into the rain? You're DITW
i am hoping this pistol brace nonsense gets sorted out before I pick up something of this length
Amen
I'd buy the brace anyways or I am actually 🤷🏽♂️
This aged well
@@cbrobinson10 yeah, I'm tired of getting raided by the AFT everywhere I go!
I want one exactly like this, but in 300BLK, and in a pistol configuration. I don't wanna deal with dumb-ass SBR laws.
Nice!
neat part is with an extra barrel and mags, you can have both!
@@PropertyHighlightsTTPI like how you think
so, you're not willing to fight for 2A? gottit!
Sweet build!! I have that same Holosun on my Kalashnikov shotgun. Amazing optic.
Ya I like it too!
🤣🤣😏
have you taken your 510C into the rain? It's trash.
Beautiful rifle. RIS II gang.
Yes sir!
So close to buying this, or at least the upper.
Go for it
LOVE this rifle. Nice bro.
Thanks
I really want one of these, especially because I’m left handed and some come ambidextrous.
Lots of fun
Great Review!!!!! HOWEVER comparing the EOTECH & the HOLOSUN...Theres one FACT about it & thats you don't have to worry about changing the battery every other week with the HOLOSUN & it does EXACTLY the same thing as the EOTECH!!!!
Ya no complaints here either
Its interesting seeing more and more Holosun, Sig, Vortex and Streamlight products on $2k+ rifles these days.
A few years years ago people would lose their shit if its not Surefire, Aimpoint and Eotech on these rifles, just shows how much other companies have improved and how much trust they've gained over the years.....
I'm even seeing more people use Olight more these days (Not that id recommend them though)
Yes indeed
Holosun isn't as good as Aimpoint period 😂
@@blackticalmayhem8461 nobody here said that
Who else sits around admiring their guns 😁
Haha
So glad I was recommended this video, subscribed brother
thanks a bunch !
why? he's got promise. but nothing here is anything more than a rich boy or a poor guy who blew his load too early.
great rifle - maybe someday. close to $3500 set up right there. fantastic
Thank you. Closer to 3k.
Wow it's looks amazing
Thanks!
and needlessly expensive.
Beautiful weapon, lovit and good build!
Thanks a bunch!
I swear man, firearm accessories must have one of the biggest markups in the world, right? There’s no way that trigger cost more than a couple bucks to produce (even that might be high)… It’s a bummer there aren’t more quality companies out there making things competitive for the geisseles of the world
Ya. Larue makes a good trigger about half the cost of the geissele.
Charge you out the a** just so you can larp as SF. Lol. No for real though it’s worth it. I used Trijicon when I was in the army and when I got out I was willing to pay whatever was necessary for a personal one.
Youre not paying for the materials. Youre paying for all the R&D, labor costs, costs of the machines to produce the item, patents, etc. Idiotic take, dude.
@@METALLIFY16 hahahaha do you not understand how mass manufacturing works, or do you just think there’s one guy making every piece himself? That’s hilarious that you don’t understand how quickly those costs are covered lol
@@METALLIFY16 For real though, that’s so funny that you’d so arrogantly defend something that you clearly know nothing about lol. It makes you sound like a cranky idiot, just fyi
This is my dream rifle! Great job but I want to get an sig Romero and peq set up front and a surefire vamp and mod button
Nice!
you'd do better with a exs3-0 and a PSA full build.
@@Gnolomwebpsa is not battle proven or have the track record of DD and they don’t guarantee for the life of the rifle. I’ve got thousands of rounds through both my DD’s, psa owners love to scream “just as good” but never shoot more than 1k
This thing is fucking work of art
I agree
@@ExplorersWorkbench Hey man what color is the lower, bcg , handrail/barrel area? Cant tell if its an OD green or .. coyote/tan?
@@Patrick-rf9gx I believe its called milspec brown
A beautiful beast 🙌🏼🦾
Thanks!
I love when she starts at the tip!!!😂
dudes on here trying to tell people how to setup a rig without showing their own DD setup...be better
True
DD is GAAAAAAAYYYY
@@CA.0verviewyou know nothing Jon snow
@@CA.0verviewokay incel😂
A holosun on a DD rifle is like putting Bargain tires on a porshce
you think so?
@@ExplorersWorkbench I dont think its a bad sight just looks awkward on a premium rifle
@@theflyingjew9338 ok what are some better options?
@@ExplorersWorkbench Better is subjective but more premium options would be offering from companies like Eotech, Aimpoint, or Trijicon as a few examples. The main difference will likely be durability among other minor features and whether you find them decidedly better is ultimately up to you. Like I said I don't think the Holosun is bad by any means.
@@theflyingjew9338 bargain tires on a Porsche sounds pretty bad.
I have a very similar set up but mine is the 11.5 ddm4v7s upper, no magnifier and an sba4 brace. Been debating getting an aimpoint t2 on it but the 510c has done very well so idk about the extra 900$
Nice!
Get the Aimpoint 😏
Would u recommend the 10.3 barrel or the 11.3 for a taller person
@@sethschneider297 I like a more compact setup regardless of height.
That brake is knocking out fillings lol
?
@@ExplorersWorkbench 100% not fun to be anywhere near that brake on a shorty. Especially indoors. Works great, but thumps
@@raymondramirez2065 oh I know. I run this almost always suppressed.
Great build.
I have a question, what's the value of having the front sight MBUS without a rear sight? How do you use it to sight without a rear sight to know where you are aiming without any "parallax" because you'll only have one sight.
Good question.. the rear did not fit with the setup in this video, I was still working on a solution at that time. It now has a rear sight as well
Would beg to differ on the stream light. Gear indoors not so great out to 100 yards
Mine is setup more for home defense
it's a 10.3 WTF are you expecting here?
What kind of rounds you use in your gun?
55 grain ball or 62 grain green tip
Great video! Hey does your dust cover close with the Bootleg BCG? Mine doesn't on my MK18. Thanks!
Same.
@@ExplorersWorkbench ok. I wonder why. I was thinking about shaving a little bit off the dust cover or something because it’s kind of annoying lol.
"Gas blowing back in my face" 🤣🤣🤣
Hahah
I have two boxers. I’m 100% familiar with “gas blowing back in my face”
I’m taking the law folder off mine. It adds quick a amount a weight. But works great tho, just prefer it taken off.
I run several eotechs. But I dig your holosun set up!
Right on
you removed the lawtac just b/c weight on the back?
How many rounds did you put though it?
(I can fit my 10.3 in a dufflebag just fine... so not sure why I'd want one anyways... BUT it is cool)
@@Gnolomweb after a can light and optics. I wanted to cut weight on it. And it was quite a bit difference removed. It’s a good product and yes fits in a bag. But by taking it off made it a hair shorter and noticeable lighter. But I do think law tactical makes this best one.
@@JeffHunter-sg4fg Just curious, how does your rifle balance? I use b5 sopmod stocks, just so I can put tungsten weights in the storage tubes. I prefer my setups to be rear heavy b/c it makes reloads a TON easier (PC or Harness). I have me MK18 with the same on the front; the tungsten weights really help. loaded mag setup comes to 11lb 9oz.
for my 18.5 bullbarreled SPR take, It's near impossible to reload mags without 2lbs of weight in the stock. (no lazer module) clocks in at 13lb 7oz with loaded mag.
@@Gnolomweb for me I just prefer to make the gun lighter. I’m just big in the saying ounces equal pounds and pounds equal pain. Carrying a gun through a course or whatever that’s heavy sucks. Just my opinion to each their own.
look stunning!
Thanks!
paid for it too
Hey man whats your camera setup? Love the top down view and clarity
Thanks. Canon r5c mounted overhead with a cstand.
I chose the Adams arms pdw and a tavor instead.
Very nice
is it bc u gay?
@@Gnolomweb no I like the piston system
Beautiful rifle indeed
Thank you thank you!
does your dust cover close or stay open? i cannot close mine w my bootleg adjustable bcg
Won’t close.
Sweet Build!
Thanks!
why? it's not anything but stock? not even "built"
Very nice looking rifle. Did I miss the length?
Agreed, on Holosun, it takes it share of heat, but I find them to be fantastic.
10.3 thanks
They're trash 😂
@@blackticalmayhem8461correct... if you want them out doors. CQB? I'd bet my life on a home invasion. Take that shit into the rain? You're praying you find cover and conceal.
Pretty nice I like it.
Thanks!
Awesome video! Can you tell me how are the individual BCG components are holding up, cam pin,gas rings etc?
They are holding up just fine
In 2000 rounds? There should be zero wear
my DD bcg is on 6k rounds. no issues. always ran wet wet. (I did replace gas tube with a BRT EZTUNE for suppressed only, after around 1k rounds.)
no rear sight to go with the front sight??? 🤔
I just put on 45 degree magpuls front and back
that means your right. He's just building aa channel. let him cook
Could you explain how you use the front BUIS without a rear?
NICE BUILD 👍👍
Thank you!
nice buy? $$$$$ over gassed and over priced.
I'm looking at a DD upper only cause I dont want to wait months and months for the form 4.
I agree. I hate it when the ATF raids my range day.
it's trash for the $. build your own.
@@Gnolomwebhigh quality parts you’ll end up being within ball park. Plus not all the parts are in stock all the time
Where is the link to buy the gun?
Can’t do that
where can I get this model? would you mind sharing a link?
How do you like the grip without the beaver tail?
@@alvinkey4591 actually love the grip
I want a mk18 but piston, i have my own set up that i want. But dude you have a front back up sight but not a rear one, hmmm.
Why piston? Just get a biggerr back pack. bnig?
@@Gnolomweb You can have either no stock or a quick detachable one. Makes the weapon smaller, less wait and better for carrying more ammo or med supplies, ounces equal pounds in the long run
Would you recommend this or wait to find a 11.5” barrel ddm4v7p?
I like the quad rail better, but that upper may be lighter.
is there a reason you taped something on your rifle stock?
That’s a ranger band. You can tuck your sling in it
bc ur mom
People legit keep track of the amount of rounds they fire through a gun lol
Rough estimate
like miles on a car. That how you know when to inspect parts thoroughly / replace things that might cause a catastrophic failure.
I count the rounds that I bring to the range/training. Then count if I have any left over. All goes in the "Gun Book" -- but I also keep detailed records of FPS/Loads/Groups/Times. Ain't no point in training if you don't have benchmarks of where to improve.
Where did you purchase this weapon
She’s a beauty 😅
Thanks!
you have low standards. I would like to meet your daughter.
Eotech is 100 times better!!!
100 times?
Eotech is better by a large margin but holosun gets the job done at a cheaper price point
so, do you put Eotechs on all your INDOOR ONLY GUNS?! lolol ur ghey
Why is it, every time someone posts a review of what’s on their guns or of their gun; there’s always a gun snob to chime in to tell us (in their own way) they paid $500 dollars for an optic or whatever amount of money on a gun???? If the man wants to rock a Holosun, it is his prerogative to do so because its his gun. SMH.
@@ExplorersWorkbench
wow this rifle looks sick... could you telll me hows the red dot Holosun, it is good to invest ?
I like it
Dope video! One thing is your front sight post is on backwards:)
Thank you for the heads up!
@@ExplorersWorkbenchfront sight post is correct. Should be facing back towards the user. Great video!
@@zachpeebles1114 thanks!
You have it on correct!!
@@itsonyou6782I’m pretty sure the push pad sits behind the flip up so you can flip it up without breaking grip
I like this model, but I will change the stock from magpull. Daniel Defense is a better!!!!
The DD stock is decent. The magpull is just a little beefier and has a better cheek weld.
How long did the Form 1 take to get approved?
Do you know the weight with all your accessories on it?
8.10 oz without suppressor
@@ExplorersWorkbenchThanks!
SUBBED👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome!
Can you tell me why you didn’t purchase the RIII? Thanks
It didn’t come out until a year or two after I bought this. I also like the ris 2 better
he needs quads for his "home defense" KEK
The fbi must have gotten a good deal on these because every out of work mass shooter that had been known by the fbi and local law enforcement always have daniel defense rifles.
FBI only issues 16"+ ... thats the min for ACTUALLY using shit ammo for needed baalistics.
This gun is a fan boy mod. He'll learrn.
Is that full auto? I have rpk it’s full auto and this thing make me to asking and my greetings to you from Iraq Al-Ramadi
Semi auto
Just had to put a muzzle break on it…I’m out
95% its suppressed
Nice setting . I do something similar in my channel.
Thanks!
How much the total costs for the gun? Any referral gun builder I can use to build a gun for me like that? Thanks!
In total probably around 3k. No its DIY.
BIS front but where is the rear?
shhhhhhh this is for clicks
where is your rear iron sight?
It didn’t fit with this config. I just added 45 degree magpul sights
