Quoted:
After seeing the quality of the general production DD rifles, I have lost a little respect for them. BCM on the other hand, is focused on quality and not production. If you want an AR to shoot at the range both will be just fine. If you want only top quality parts made to the highest standards BCM is the only choice. BTW there is a reason why they are always out of stock....
I disagree, Daniel defense is very much quality oriented. All their barrels are produced in house and are cold hammer forged, their rails are second to none, they offer the best lower receivers in my opinion (slightly flared mag well), and they now have their innovative front sight post and flash hider.
Their overall packages are very complete, and come with a hard case, vertical foregrip, quality fixed rear sight, ladder rail covers, and a PMAG.
BCM is awesome, no doubt. But it would be hard for me to say one is better than the other
