There are not any that I'm aware of. Why?

My Noveske's gas tube passes over the top of the sws barrel nut not sure if your looking to get a new rail or not?

The gas tube passing through a hole or scallops in the barrel nut prevents the nut from coming off during use.

I too am curious why you would not want one to do that.

It's going to vary by rail system, isn't it?

Yeah, it will. I had forgotten about the Noveske, even though I have one.
