lkdr1989Any source for Daniel Defense upper receivers?
I've been looking all over the interwebz for a Daniel Defense upper receiver and am stumped, anyone know of a place that is selling one? I just bought a DD barrel and would like it to match.

LDDI don't know of any place that sells just the stripped upper receivers.

JRCI suspect you are out of luck on a stripped DD upper only.
It looks like DD only sells completed uppers - they don't list any upper receivers as a part only on their website.
Good luck!

Oh well, I had a sneaking suspicion that was the case.

I was actually going to go the route of buying a full assembled upper but the issue is that I don't really like their rails and was going to swap it for a different one, which means, I would've had to take the upper apart...so I figured since I already have the tools, it'd be cheaper to just buy the parts and build it myself.
Thanks to you both for your quick response!

gibby29Have you looked at their new V7 Mlok rail? It’s a nice rail. I wish they’d get away from the squared off rail look of the past but it’s nice and thin like I like them.

walker77Call Daniel defense. I bought one from them about 5 years ago when I was doing my MK18 build.

blinker1Keep an eye on Western Sport as they pop up on their occasionally. I just checked and they have old Ambush marked DD receivers on special.

There's a seller on GB that has "new take-off" stripped DD uppers for sale.
I have no connection/relationship with the seller other than I have done business with the seller as a buyer of goods and they were good to go.
Use the following as your search: "Daniel Defense M4 Upper Receiver AR15 MK18 M4A1"
