Check Your Serial Numbers: Daniel Defense Safety Notification

Daniel Defense has issued a safety notification for some firearms manufactured over a twelve month period. They tell us some faulty disconnectors have been causing inadvertent doubling. Read their release below then visit this page to check your serial number.

Daniel Defense is committed to the highest level of quality and safety. In keeping with that commitment we are issuing a safety notification related to a condition we identified with the Disconnector in the Fire Control Group.
