My son bought one a few years ago...hard to believe a 19-20 year old kid could save that many pennies. He's abused the shit out of it and it runs like a champ and accurate as hell.  He didn't clean it for the first 1000 rounds or so, not even a hiccup.

If you have the coin, they retain their value...

OP, how cute.  You're stuck in 2011.  Maybe you will find out what Noveske's current owners are really about after this thread?

And my favorite rifle in my collection is a ~2012 Noveske SBR.

Their stuff seems to be good quality, but I don’t own any personally. I do think it’s unfortunate that they chose to partner with OAF Nation recently, as that guy is a massive Biden cuck.

I've had a few.  Only one I have right now is my Noveske MK18.  Factory upper with a Gen II lower built up with a Daniel Defense LPK and Geissele SSA.  Old pic; swapped UBR to an A5 receiver extension and CTR.

When John died so did the company.  They are just another machined billet AR with a cool roll mark now.  

I bought one of the first SPRs back when they started producing them.  It was an amazingly accurate rifle.  I regret selling it, but I was tight on cash after buying a new house and wanted the kids to have a good Christmas.

Why did Noveske get the reputation they did?  Because John understood the minutia and details of what made barrels work, and what engineering behind the mechanics of the rifle were important.  He innovated.  

Ever since he passed Noveske has been stuck in 2011 which is when John made his last update to the platform.  Any developments since then has been rebranded 3rd party componentry.  

I still love my Noveske.  But John reinvested the profits back into R&D and developing a platform.  The current ownership invests the profits into vacation homes and yachts.  But the boobie pics are nice.

I ordered my 16" Recon from John himself before he died. He was very polite and gave me great advice on what rifle would be best for my needs. It is an amazing rifle, has never let me down, and I've made some pretty amazing shots with it (to me).

Man, this thread gives the memories. Reminds me of the good 'ol days when people were tattooing AAC logos on themselves.

Noveske was definitely the hotness over a decade ago. Their stainless barrels had a good reputation, but I think the real innovation was the double-thickness chrome lined barrels that were re-profiled from M249 SAW barrels.

I remember getting in on their special Magpul lower rifle, and also scalping a Noveske upper during the first big panic after Obama got elected. Good times.

Anyway, I guess things were never quite the same after John passed. These days I think all I have left is a Noveske lower (which is SBR'd, so it isn't going anywhere). I've moved on to KAC and Geissele.

When you build your own A.R. 15‘s, you get exactly what you want and you have more money left over for ammunition. A guy who buys an expensive Gucci  AR and doesn’t shoot it because he doesn’t want his “investment” to depreciate isn’t the type of guy that potential tyrants are worried about. That really is a pretty rifle though.

I agree about building guns, but I don’t understand the mentality that people who buy expensive pre-built guns don’t run the shit out of them or just keep them in the safe.

I’m sure that happens and I suppose if I bought a purdy Noveske, I’d be tempted to keep it purdy while continuing to run the snot out of my parts guns (one of which is in Noveske territory as far as price).

But to instantly assume that someone only buys an expensive ar to put in its own safe and never touch it?

Do you feel the same about Knights owners?  Larue?  PWS?  Umbrella Corp?  Etc?

It’s pretty normal for a guy to have a high grade pre-64 model 70 and not drag it through the hunting woods when he has a modern version of a bolt gun with composite stocks and a more durable finish to get marred up.

Why is the attitude different for inherently valuable ars?  

Also, most people don’t run any of their guns very hard, imo.

Fuck Noveske. They took a great company and made it into a douchebag Instagram bro t shirt company. There's plenty of companies making solid rifles. I'll never buy another one until they become an actual gun company again.

I bought some of their t-shirts and the neck holes are so large they are unwearable.

All of their line is fantastic. Still one of my favorites.

You can get more performance or features, even at a cheaper price, with other offerings, but I still prefer the Triji looking at it from a complete perspective.

Yeah… $3k was a bit steep.  I believe I got the special price of $2995.  It was painful but I had the timeframe of waiting on 2 stamps to soften the sting a bit.
