Daniel Defense 5.56mm NATO 14.5" 1:7" CMV CHF Mid-Length Lightweight Barrel Assembly 07-078-08072-018

The Daniel Defense 5.56mm NATO 14.5" 1:7" CMV CHF Mid‑Length Lightweight Barrel Assembly is a high‑performance replacement barrel engineered for AR‑pattern rifles where a compact, lightweight profile is desired. Machined from CMV (chromium‑molybdenum‑vanadium) steel and cold‑hammer‑forged for exceptional durability and consistent bore geometry, the barrel features a 14.5‑inch length with a 1:7 twist rate optimized to stabilize heavier 5.56/.223 projectiles. The mid‑length gas configuration and lightweight contour reduce felt recoil and improve handling while preserving reliable gas system performance; Daniel Defense’s CHF process provides a long‑wearing bore that supports sustained accuracy. Finished and spec‑matched for direct fitment into standard AR receivers, this assembly is aimed at shooters seeking a rugged, mission‑oriented barrel that balances compactness with proven ballistic performance.

All of Daniel Defense’s Barrels offer high performance and a long lasting construction. All barrels are cold-hammer forged and made from 4150 Chrome Moly Vanadium steel with a mil-spec heavy phosphate coating as well as a chrome lining for superior durability. In addition, Daniel Defense Barrels are offered in a massive assortment of configurations, with options available for different lengths, gas-blocks, thread pitches, and calibers.
