I finally got a reply today from Noveske about my inquiry of the Switch Block on the 7.62.  They are currently testing them but they are only offered on the 5.56 at this time.

Noveske's website, under "Products", then under "N4 Stainless Uppers",  then under "5.56mm Uppers" but especially under "5.56mm Uppers with VIS" has a whole bunch of pics of Switchblock equipped rifles:  10.5", 12.5" 14.5" 16" 18"- at least you can see how they look.

Anyone throw one of these into a DD 9.5FSP yet?

For the installation kits, will there be a Switchblock that also has a sight on it (like my current F-marked FSB) or would I need to secure a standard rail-type back-up front iron?

Have you fired the weapon with the switch block set on suppressed without a suppressor? By accident or otherwise. Did the weapon short stroke?

ON PURPOSE - YES, IT SHORT STROKES, AS ONE MIGHT EXPECT.

BOB,

GLAD YOU LIKE IT. IT'S MY FIRST 10.5" WITH THE SWITCHBLOCK, AND I HAVE TO SAY I AM QUITE PLEASED WITH THE WAY IT TURNED OUT, AS WELL.

GOOD SHOOTING,

WES

Wes, how much barrel is there in front of the switchblock on the above rifle?  Could it take an AAC SPR/M4 mount?
12/16/2008 1:53:32 PM EDT
[#13]
What the above asked.
12/17/2008 4:17:47 AM EDT
[#14]
IF this was possible, you'd have seen or heard about a SPR/M4 on a 10.5" barrel by now.  I don't think it would work even with a normal gas block.  I think you need about another 1.25"
12/17/2008 3:48:10 PM EDT
[#15]
Yup, disregard question.  I was thinking 11.5" barrel.  Just out of curiosity, anyone know the minimum barrel length for an M4/SPR mount with a Switchblock?  I'm guessing somewhere between 11" and 11.5".

11.5" LWRC with a carbine length rail:

Any more Noveske SS 18 SPR barrels with switchblocks?
I was thinking of one like the last one you pictured, but with a regular upper and an AAC Blackout instead of the Ops.

Danke,

Jorge

Can you order just a barrel with a switch block at this time???
I have a build waiting for some thing just like that.

Same question for me.  I would like a SS Noveske 16 inch with switchblock, all in black.

JOHN NOVESKE WANTS THESE SWITCHBLOCK BARRELS BUILT UP INTO COMPLETE BUILDS, AND NOT SOLD SEPARATELY AT THIS TIME.

Wes,
Any word on when just the barrel and switchblock will become available?  Specifically 10.5"  I just don't need a whole upper.

Gee Wes, StickM just gave us a visual of a dream upper, a 14.5in midi gased switchblocked N4.My perfect ten would be a Noveske anything 12.5in with Switchblock, KAC URX).
Any news when John Noveske will do any switchblocked 12.5in barrels?
It seems the only things he offers  with switchblock are the 10.5in N4's. I wouldn't mind a 12.5in N4 with switchblock either.
Can you ask him? Sheri doesn't know when.

NOVESKE DOES NOT OFFER N4 BARRELS IN ANY LENGTH FOR SALE SEPARATELY, WITH OR WITHOUT THE SWITCHBLOCK. THEY MAY ONLY BE OBTAINED IN A COMPLETE BUILD.

I HAVE NO IDEA IF OR WHEN NOVESKE WILL OFFER A 12.5" N4 SWITCHBLOCK BARREL. THEY CAN BE HAD NOW IN 12.5" STAINLESS, BUT AGAIN, NOT SEPARATELY, ONLY IN A COMPLETE BUILD.

THE UPPER SHOWN ABOVE BY RANIER ARMS APPEARS TO HAVE A CARBINE LENGTH GAS SYSTEM, NOT A MID-LENGTH.

EDITED TO ADD: WE HAVE NOVESKE 10.5" N4 SWITCHBLOCKS AVAILABLE FOR CUSTOM BUILDS.

WE COULD DO THAT. I HAVE ALL OF THE PARTS BUT THE BARREL WITH SWITCHBLOCK. IT WOULD TAKE SOME TIME, THOUGH, TO COME UP WITH THE BARREL. THE LAST 12.5" NOVESKE S/S BARREL WITH SWITCHBLOCK I ORDERED TOOK SIX MONTHS.


GOOD SHOOTING,

WES
