Great upper
The picture isn't quite correct. The upper receiver is black. This is my first Daniel defense product and I am not disappointed. The three-prong flash hider is properly clocked, the bolt carrier group is properly staked, the finish is very good. I did notice there was wear marks on the bottom of my ...

Not as described on products page.
The upper isn’t as described on the products page. It is pinned and welded and came with a standard Daniel defense bird cage flash hider ($40) instead of the top of the line surefire 3 prong flash hider ($140) that is listed on the products page. Optics planet stated that they could not fix the issu...

Perfect out of the box upper
This is a perfect out of the box upper. It comes from a reputable company that produces highly reliable and durable firearms. The already p/w installed Surefire Three-Prong flash hider is a huge plus, this makes it instantly ready to go. The MFR rail is tough, sleek and super comfortable to use. This is essentially a URGI with a DD rail.
Would recommend: Yes
Well well well
I gotta say I was impressed with this upper but disappointed in I got the wrong size barrel. Ordered 14.5 with pinned and welded flash but got a 13.5 �♂️
Pros:
- Looks good
Cons:
- Did not get what I ordered
Best Used for:
- shooting

QD Slots do not work
Pros:
1. The finish on the MLOK rail is superbly smooth and durable.
2. The bolt action passed several of my quality gauges.
Cons:
1. The QD slots do not work, I tried multiple brands and they all failed to engage. Looking on the internet, it looks like a common problem on their mlok rails.
2. The picture had the incorrect details. The “5.56 bullet” logo is not on the upper. It is only marked with “Daniel Defense.”

Daniel Defense Complete Upper
DD is probably the best manufacturer in the industry. for them to partner with optics planet and come up with this limited edition upper is truly amazing. I loved the first one so much, I bought another just a few days later. Highly recommend you check it out.

DD 14.5 upper
Exactly as I imagined. Shipped fast and shoots flawlessly. It would be the perfect buy for some one with a sure fire can.
Would recommend: Yes
Well Built, As Expected
This complete upper showed in no time at all. Once opened, it came in a well packaged DD box, that was inside of an equally well packaged OP box. Upper came out flawless. Got it added to my lower later that day and took it to the range a few days later where it shot very nice. A little gassy, but nothing an H2 couldn't take care of. Wish it came with an adjustable gas block, but not a big deal. Since its pin and weld swapping that gas block out wont be quick fix but it is doable if some really feels like doing the work, but can also be achieved through buffer and spring adjustments.
Pros:
- None
Cons:
- Does not come with adjustable gas block
Would recommend: Yes
