I don't know anything about this upper. My local gunstore emailed also with the same price. I've seen posts on Twitter also [shrug] |

that costs more than the new shotgun i want to waterfowl hunt with and that will bring food to the table to. ill pass. plus i can almost build a 11.5 rifle for that price

Is Daniel Defense GD approved? Have they lost any customers recently?
|
|
At that price, I’d just spend a bit more for their 10.3 and call it a day. They make good shit but they’re very proud of it

Always check Eurooptic for DD complete rifles or uppers. Their prices usually cannot be beat.

Doesn't look like any contract overrun I'm familiar with. Is this the unofficial MK18 Mod3 or whatever?

I started to question why anyone would pay that much for an upper. Then I began to recall what I spent for my 11.5”.
I have an upper with a BCM 11.5”. If memory serves I paid around $250 for that barrel about ten years ago. Then I bought a Spike’s quad rail for another $250. BCG was $100. My guess is I paid $50 for a stripped upper and perhaps $10 for port door/hinge/spring. I think the charging handle was $60. And then finally $80 for the QD FH for my can. I’m not a math major but that’s a tad less than $300 shy of that DD upper. My 11.5” upper isn’t anything special in my eyes. Functional? Absolutely. But that DD upper doesn’t seem so outrageously priced to me. |

It's an odd configuration for a "contract overrun," though. |

Quoted: DD4 7.0 instead of RIS III Fixed front sight post Plastic ejection port door I'm guessing some LE department or private security. View Quote This is somewhat recent . . . See page 93, middle of page. It's not definitive (no mention of FFS), but it's plausible. |

I’m not gonna lie, I actually really like that. Something about SBRs with front sights just do it for me.
Is it a couple hundred more than you can build one for? Sure, but it’s a factory built upper and love em or hate em, nobody can deny DD quality, especially the barrels. I need another upper like I need a hole in the head but I might FO for this and sell another upper to justify it. |

Not a RIS III rail, does not look like the MLOK rail I have on a 11.5” upper from DD, not sure what overrun
That is not a standard DD MLOK rail, does not have the shovel nose bottom? In fact, I don’t see that DD4 7.0 listed on their website I bought my DD MK18 upper, no BCG, from Brownells a few years back for $700. When you look at what you are getting, that $1100 price is not bad, based on todays pricing. I do like that MLOK rail without the shovel nose look…price also include the DD rear BUIS, not bad. The DD rear BUIS is very well made |
