This started off as a general JSOC thread but it's quickly become nothing more than talking about the Noveske Navy, so let's just dedicate it to that.

Ran into a similar issue with some Gen 1 uppers/lowers. I contacted Noveske and they said that they run their tolerances tight. The suggested working them together to mate them and that is how they do their paired uppers/lowers. I threw some Slip 2k on the pivot and takedown lugs and did this several times. It's tight but more workable now. Would probably help with a barreled upper since it's hard to get any leverage to split tight receivers once seated.

How are you guys attaching slings to your rifles? Looks like Dev is going back to a single point sling to run this. There is much less MLOK slots on the NSR than my Geissele MK8.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By LsuJon: Qd mlok or on the top rail such as the magpul rsa qd. Really all personal preference. Yeah that Magpul RSA might be the only way to do it comfortable outside of a single point. When I put a BCM QD mlok attachment on the farthest back mlok slot on the NSR, it gets in the way of my grip. I end up gripping the sling, the qd mount and the handguard. Appreciate the recommendation! |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By officerX: Need some help/advice. I've got the gen 3 upper and gen 1 lower and they fit together tighter than a virgin nun. Like I had to force them together and pry them apart. After Cerakote, this will probably be worse, right? What should I do? Next, do we know if, and if so, what sling is being used and how it's attached? I had that with a set before too. Sent Noveske an email with a video of the issue and they said mine was out of spec and swapped the receiver. Wouldn’t hurt to reach out to them and see what they say. Yours might wear in perfectly or need to be swapped |

Regular production item. Here is the response from Noveske. Hi [Redacted], Thanks for reaching out to us. I took a look at our inventory and see that we are pretty heavily back ordered on those currently. We are still sending them out to dealers so you might check with Wing Tactical, Midway USA, Primary Arms, Joe Bob Outfitters and Rainier arms as they will likely have them in stock before we do. I hope that helps! -Matt |

Is there anyone that can recontour the medium contour into the navy contour? Since this would be a clone and were in a clone thread - Contouring a medium barrel to the navy likely wouldn't work. You would need to bead blast the machined area, and then re-stamp it with the noveske cross and other markings. That's kind of a tall order. My temp barrel showed up today. It was a good mail day for that matter. I'll use the medium contour 5.56 barrel as a temp until there is more stock of the navy barrels, BCG's for other builds since I think the normal noveske phosphate BCG is the right one to use. I'm not going to shell out massive shekels if Noveske is still doing runs of them, I got time

I am going to be slow-building this clone. Will be my first one in a few years. I have had an E-series Noveske SBR'd lower for more than ten years (as a MK18ish gun using one of the old LMT 10.5 uppers). I need to clean off and paint my lower. Upper will probably take some time, lol.
Pic is only for the lower (stock was out of stock, but I should have one soon--ignore the upper):  Attached File |

I remember my old DD MK18 had one at .081 and it sucked lol It’s a beast like any short barrel 556, but not bad with a H3 buffer. Strong ejection around 3:00. Barrel is what’s most impressive with its accuracy. Gas to the face is there with a can, but I also still get a little gas to the face with my MK18 and gasbuster CH. |

Only thing is it's wearing a Geissele MK8 in blk right now. But PM me so we don't sidetrack this thread. Back on topic, is there a specific lower parts kit to this build or just standard stuff with geissele trigger? |

You could always use a BRT gas block insert to tame the gas
side note: NSR-9 inbound. the last item needed is the navy profile barrel and dust covers, looks like this build is going to happen. excited! |

Or in my opinion....even better than the BRT gas block insert is the BRT EZTune gas tubes. You can step down as little or as much as you want. 2 of mine have been 100% reliable so far. |

I saw the 10.5 5.56 (non navy) profile barrels sell out before my eyes about 5 minutes ago, and they were OOS earlier this week. Noveske also posted on IG this morning that they did a barrel restock. |
