    Either way I'd put the new NSR on any upcoming Noveske build, personally.
    Dunno if the offer it, and I have no mounts or idea where to buy them to fit it for my light

    Handguards and rail sections available (until direct keymod attachments come out).

Are my fears for ky blast baffle with a fh unfounded? Baffle strike fears? What about reliability vs. 12.5?

    IMO the whole internet panic of baffle erosion is largely overblown. and with any of the brakes that are going to help with this, they are going to blast your socks off with 12.5 as much as with 10.5 would.

    I'm wanting to run a fh regardless. Is there much difference between 10.5 and 12.5 in the erosion department? What about baffle strikes and reliability?

    Yes. 12.5" is less.

    What about baffle strikes and reliability?

    If its a Noveske, no.

    Why do the loudest do the least?

    Leaning toward the 12.5" because empirical data, pictures, and first-hand account seems to indicate that it's a big step up from 10.5" in every way but 2" less maneuverability.

    I believe the SBR maneuverability thing is overblown. SOF units have been doing CQB for years just fine with 14.5" uppers. If I were getting in and out of cars a lot (which I don't), I'd go as short as possible, but between 10.5" and 12.5" I'd go with 12.5". I have a Noveske 12.5" upper and Daniel Defense 12.5" and they're both awesome.

    Don't get me wrong- I love SBRs, but the fact that most trainers I've taken classes from that were previously at the pointy tip of the spear units are using 16" barrels is a clue.

    What makes you think that the 77gr. OTM round is going to cause a bafflestrike? I would be ALOT more concerned about some Tula/Wolf shit causing a baffle strike than 77gr. OTM ammo.
