Daniel Defense Offers Shorter Variation of Popular Rail
OutdoorHub 04.12.12
Daniel Defense has announced plans to immediately offer a new variation of the popular MFR 12.0. The new variation of the MFR, Modular Float Rail, will be offered in a new 9″ length option in conjunction with the popular and currently offered 12″ variation.
The original MFR 12.0 was the defining feature offered on 2011’s second most popular Daniel Defense rifle, the DDM4 V7.
“It isn’t hard to understand why the DDM4 V7 was one of 2011’s most popular rifles”, says Jordan Hunter, Marketing Manager for Daniel Defense. The shorter, 9″ version of the MFR accentuates the feature characteristics that made the 12″ version a success: lighter weight, modularity, continuous uninterrupted top rail, and three adjustable 3″ picatinny rail sections at the three, six, and nine o’clock positions. “Those same great features are now being offered in a shorter version that allows for greater flexibility in barrel length choices,” Jordan went on to say. Regardless of the length, 12″ or 9″, the MFR has an outside diameter of 1.76 inches and an inner diameter of 1.61 inches. The total weight of the MFR 9.0 is 13.39 ounces, which lends itself well to Daniel Defense’s tagline of Lighter. Stronger. Better.
