Daniel Defense® is well-known for their lineup of exceptional, USA-made firearms. From their Daniel H9 handgun to the range of Delta 5 precision bolt action rifles, they have something for every firearms enthusiast.

This also extends to their range of AR-style rifles, including AR10 and AR15-style firearms. For years, firearms enthusiasts of all kinds, including civilians, law enforcement, and former military, have turned to Daniel Defense® for industry-leading AR-style rifles.

Whether you’ve just purchased your first Daniel Defense® AR-style rifle or you’ve decided to add the MK12 rifle to your gun safe along with other Daniel Defense® firearms, here are a few tips to get the most out of your new purchase.

Customize Your Rifle to Meet Your Needs

Daniel Defense® AR-style rifles are complete and ready to go right out of the box. However, the beauty of the AR platform is you can swap out certain parts and customize the rifle to fit your needs. Thanks to the construction of each Daniel Defense® AR-style rifle, you can change everything from the AR15 upper receiver group to the barrel to the gas block—and much more.

You can even assemble your own AR-style rifle if you want to build your perfect rifle from the ground up. Daniel Defense® makes it easy to either build or customize your rifle to meet your specific needs.

Upgrade Your Rifle with a Suppressor

Although suppressors require an NFA tax stamp, lots of firearm owners love Daniel Defense® suppressors. Suppressors can add more utility to your new AR-style rifle by reducing the amount of noise and recoil generated by every shot. Both of these features can contribute to the safety of the firearm.

For instance, using a suppressor in addition to ear protection can be an even more effective way to protect your hearing when you fire your rifle. At the same time, the reduction in recoil can make the rifle easier to handle—which can be a big plus if you fire off hundreds of rounds every range day.

Head to the Range and Get a Feel for Your New AR-Style Rifle

Did you get a new 308 AR, like the DD5 V4 Hunter? This AR10-style rifle can make for an excellent hunting rifle. However, it can be beneficial to head to the range to get a feel for your new rifle before hunting season.

Of course, you don’t need an excuse to head to your favorite local range. But getting a handle on a new rifle is an essential part of gun ownership. It gives you a chance to see and feel the rifle in action. Plus, you can use this as an opportunity to dial things in and determine if you need to make any adjustments to your new Daniel Defense® rifle.
