Daniel Defense DD5 V5 | .260 Rem | 20″ Barrel | MFG# 02-165-01229-047

The Daniel Defense DD5 V5 in .260 Remington is a long-range-focused AR-platform rifle built around a cold hammer forged S2W profile barrel and a free-floating DD5 M-LOK rail. It features an adjustable gas block for consistent performance with or without a suppressor and a refined bolt carrier group intended to reduce perceived recoil and improve reliability. For an optic pairing under $1,000 that complements the DD5 V5’s long-range capability, consider the Vortex Viper PST Gen II 5-25×50; it provides the magnification range and glass quality suitable for precision work without exceeding the price guideline.
