Daniel Defense employs Cold Hammer Forging technology, a method recognized for decades as the gold standard in producing the most accurate and durable barrels available. This advanced process utilizes intense hydraulic pressure applied at opposing angles by carbide steel hammers to shape the barrel. During manufacturing, a mandrel is inserted into the bore, while the carbide hammers meticulously form the barrel around it, creating the chamber, lands and grooves. The Cold Hammer Forging process not only enhances accuracy but also ensures a defect-free bore and a remarkably consistent chamber. This precision engineering results in barrels that are built to withstand rigorous use while maintaining exceptional performance. Trust Daniel Defense for barrels that offer longevity and reliability, setting the benchmark for firearm excellence.
