Daniel Defense DD5 P Pistol, 7.62 NATO, 12.5″ Barrel, No Magazine

Product Description

The Daniel Defense DD5 P, part 02-088-30157-067, is a pistol as configured by Daniel Defense, chambered in 7.62 NATO with a 12.5-inch S2W profile barrel, a mid-length adjustable gas system and a DD5 M-LOK 10.5 rail, supplied without a magazine.

Daniel Defense gives the no-magazine build its own part number and changes nothing else: same barrel, same receivers, same assembly. It exists for buyers whose jurisdictions regulate magazine capacity, where a dealer supplies a compliant magazine locally. Order the standard DD5 pistol in 7.62 instead if you do not need it. Capacity rules are set at state and local level and they change, so confirm the current requirements for your own jurisdiction first. Call 817-393-4000 for help sourcing a compliant magazine, or see our magazine selection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What magazines does the DD5 P take?

A: The DD5 platform accepts SR-25 pattern magazines, and Daniel Defense specifies a Magpul PMAG 20-round for the family. Since this part number arrives without one, confirm what capacity your jurisdiction currently permits and then call 817-393-4000 and we will help you source a compliant SR-25 pattern magazine.

Q: Why does the DD5 P ship with no magazine?

A: Because magazine capacity is regulated in a number of places, and Daniel Defense builds a separate part number so the firearm can reach those buyers. The dealer then supplies a compliant magazine locally. Nothing about the pistol itself differs from the standard configuration.

Q: What does the adjustable gas block do on a 12.5-inch 7.62 build?

A: It lets you tune gas volume to the load and to whether a suppressor is fitted, giving a consistent feel either way. On a barrel this short in 7.62 that control matters, because over-gassing is what beats up the action and sharpens the recoil impulse.

Q: What is the DD5 4-Bolt Connection System?

A: It secures the handguard to the upper receiver without a barrel nut, increasing the connection surface area between the two. Daniel Defense uses it to add rigidity and stability to the barrel-to-receiver joint, which is where a 7.62 AR-pattern firearm tends to lose accuracy.

Q: Is the DD5 P classed as a pistol?

A: Daniel Defense configures and sells it as a pistol, and that is how we list it. We offer no legal opinion on braces and no advice on changing the configuration; those are questions for your own attorney. The firearm is serialized and transfers through a licensed FFL.

Q: What thread pitch is on the muzzle?

A: 5/8 x 24 TPI, carrying a linear compensator from the factory. The linear compensator sends blast and concussion forward rather than to the sides, which is worth having on a 12.5-inch 7.62 barrel. Call 817-393-4000 before buying anything to fit that thread.
