Also known as: DDM4 PDW SBR
Overview
The DDM4 PDW is Daniel Defense's most compact rifle platform, designed for home and personal defense. Chambered in .300 Blackout with a 7-inch barrel and pistol-length gas system, it pairs a Maxim Defense CQB Gen 7 collapsible stock with a linear compensator that directs muzzle blast forward, away from the shooter. The compact form factor makes it easy to store and transport.
