Quote HistoryQuoted: I love my Noveske. My only gripe for a combat rifle is that the tolerances are so tight I can’t knock out the take down pins without a punch. Can’t do it by hand. That and their stainless barrels are heavy as shit. Haven’t tried there hammer forged barrel. They have lightweight stainless barrels. Although my Recon is an EASY 3/4 MOA rifle. ETA: I own 3 Noveke's. Light Recce, Recon, factory SBR light shorty (with switchblock rail). They are all exceptional in every way. |

I’m not really interested in Noveske stuff. No doubt it’s good, just not what I want.
I am, however, glad you’re back. I hope you were able to accomplish what you wanted during your hiatus. |

Quote HistoryLOL I was good buds with the staff at RCC that trained and ran setup on a lot of their parts back in the day (instructors came in and did the programming and tooling/jig setup, left them with just push this button collect bacon). Barrels are good, I will give them that. But they hand ream them. |

It seems they make nice stuff but the strategy for them is to be Instagram bro gun and do drops with limited quantities to drum up a demand. They may be stylish and functional but they are a company that is a true child of social media and decreasing in amounts of actual substance daily. |

I’ve never had an oem complete rifle but have used many noveske components over the years, been very happy. Currently have a 14.5 stainless mid length Afghan barrel on an sbr and very happy with its accuracy and gassing. Suppressed and unsuppressed. Bought the last 16 inch fluted stainless mid length stainless barrel they had from their 4th of July sale and eagerly anticipating its arrival for a light weight hunting and target rifle I’ve got in the works. I don’t care for their noveske badged accessories. Especially the Troy sights.
I think the brand is cool, as well as their branding and their videos too. While I’m not down with the flatbill Instagram thing I can’t really fault the kids that took over after John died. They kept his life’s work prominent and relevant among the millennial generation, in Oregon no less and elsewhere. Props to a popular gun company from Oregon. |

I bought a Noveske NMmod0 7pt barrel then ordered a Noveske N4 lower. By then Noveske uppers were unobtainium, so I found a chainsaw stripped upper which mated up perfectly, mounted a carbon fiber fore arm and a Geiselle SSA.
I may not be a factory made complete rifle, but I have no complaints.  |

Sold a few, regret it. They were all factory rifles from when John was alive. I still have a Ares profiled rifle, that Noveske did for a few distributors, right when he died. I haven’t cared much since.
I am a Vseven nut, and ironically the owner has prior experience with Noveske from the old days. I usually sell a organ to fund their barrels, but they are top notch. |
