Daniel Defense has unveiled its latest addition to the Limited Series lineup: the Crocodile. The basis is a DDM4 V9 with a unique rattle can Cerakote finish. With a base of Stone Grey complemented by Crocodile and Magpul FDE accents, this rifle exudes a distinctive, aggressive look reminiscent of its namesake.

The Crocodile uses a 16" Cold Hammer Forged barrel made from Chrome Moly Vanadium Steel. With a 1:7 twist rate and chrome lining, longevity and consistent accuracy should be ensured. The gas system is mid-length, combined with a pinned low-profile gas block, direct impingement.


Daniel Defense’s Limited Series @ TFB:

The rifle is equipped with a Timney Armourers Trigger, providing a crisp and reliable pull for enhanced shooting precision. Magpul MBUS 3 sights in FDE come standard, allowing for rapid target acquisition right out of the box.

More details about the parts: The charging handle is a GRIP-N-RIP, the 15” front rail is a Daniel Defense DDM4 and the furniture is all from Daniel Defence as well. The bolt carrier group is M16 Profile, and DD takes pride in noting that the gas key is properly staked.
