I recently came across an upper receiver on arms list. It has a lot of high end parts(noveske, Larue) and is going to set me back a fair amount of cash. If anybody knows the guy selling... Based off of my super vague description, can you let me know if he is legit.

It's a noveske 13.7 in barrel with a kx3
Larue13 in tube
Vltor upper etc

Thanks

Not to nit pick, but I can tell you Larue's Railed Hand Guards come in 12" and 13.2"...  Fairly heavy, but good quality... I've got a few Larue goodies myself...
If you don't mind me asking, how much is it going for?
Are you building an SBR or Pistol?
***E.T.A.***



N/m...  
I found it, it states its a 13.2"...
I don't think I've ever saw a 13.7"  Barrel setup. Post pics of it once you get it all done, if'n ya get it...
Also, your cuttin it real close, as the kx3 adds about 2.75" to the overall length of the barrel.  

I'm getting 15.95"

Looks like someone swiped some parts to go with said upper...

FYI: noveske made that 13.7 barrel specifically to go with a pinned on PIG and be a legal gun w/o stamp.  they haven't been making those barrels for that long at all

How is that??? From what I read kx3 even though its 3.28 inch OAL, it only adds about 2.75" to the overall length of the barrel. so with that  

I'm getting 15.95"



and if you look at Noveke's page, the only 5.56, 13.7"  I can find is the ""Infidel" http://noveskerifleworks.com/cgi-bin/imcart/display.cgi?item_id=b-137-556&cat=158&page=1&search=&since=&status=&title=



and its Blurb at the bottom says:



All NFA Regulations apply. Please check your local and state laws before ordering.


Contact your local ATF Field Office with any NFA questions you may have.



Either way, it Does sound like a good idea though if it actually comes out 16" or a tad more...

Any way to keep it short as possible and get around the wait time and cost of the stamp is OK in my book...

hehe, your right.  noveske doesn't pin anything onto the bare barrels they sell so even the 14.5" barrels are technically NFA items.  it is your job to get it pinned and legal.

here is where they say about the 13.7 and pig, 4th comment down https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=250480411750216&id=181862575167497

i was watching them like a hawk for 4 months while i was waiting for them to post more 11.5 switchblock barrels on sale.  they came out with these during this time.
