I have another 13.7" Noveske and it runs great. A little finicky on buffers when suppressed vs unsuppressed, but thats just tuning. |

So it was actually cerekoted Magpul Foliage with the rest of the gun, and then I re laser marked it. |

The back end of the tube has the cross on it, the buffer face has the cross on it and fits into the end of the cut-down BCG. There is no buffer retainer pin or spring. I'll try to get some pics tonight. |

That's pretty neat, reminds me of the Colt SCW buffer system. Is taking it down annoying with the spring constantly pushing on the upper?

Yes, you appear to be correct. To EE it goes. Originally Posted By kavants: Originally Posted By Scalped: @kavants Looks great, thanks!
