A couple of weeks ago I heard that Tommy @ SmartGunner.com was offering an almost unheard of deal on brand new Daniel Defense Upper groups, and seeing how I was in the market for a new 14.5" setup I contacted him to see what he could do for me. I ended up ordering a DD 14.5" CHF LW Mid-Length barrel with a DD 12" Lite rail and a pinned Phanton flash hider to finish everything off. I will say that the price was incredible and his customer service was great. The guys at Daniel Defense kept me in the loop with the build progress since they actually make these at their facility. It came in yesterday and needless to say I'm speechless. The finish and fit are top notch and everything about it just oozes with quality. The job Daniel Defense did on the flash hider pinning is amazing, so much so that you really have to look for the pin and weld marks.
I'll have a full range report soon. My aimpoint T-1 and Troy flip up sights should be here by Friday so I plan on sighting everything in this weekend. I couldn't decide between the T-1 or a Eotech XPS2-0...I hope I made the right choice with the T-1.
