    Noveske upper from one place / comp from another

    Looking to get a Noveske 14.5 Afghan w/NSR in stainless with a BCM Gunfighter comp.

    The BCM Gunfighter comp is not in stock at the moment.

    Is there a way to get the complete upper without a flash hider or comp while I wait for the BCM Gunfighter comp to become available.

    I presume it would just have the threads, right?

    I live in Mass, so not sure if that is possible.

    In the mean time I'll wait for the BCM and have my local gunsmith put it on when it comes in.

    So, how can I get the complete upper ready to accept the BCM Gunfighter comp?

    Noveske offers multiple muzzle brakes and flash hiders, however you'd need to special order one with the BCM comp (provided they do indeed offer it). They also offer them without, but again, they need to be special ordered. They aren't taking orders from individuals right now, so that means that your options are:
    1. Wait and hope that they go through their backlog fast enough to start taking orders, then wait for yours to be built and shipped.
    2. Order it through a dealer and hope that Noveske gets through their backlog fast enough to get to your dealers orders, then wait for it to be built and shipped.
    3. Order the first 14.5" stainless NSR upper you see, regardless of muzzle device, then send it to Adco or another reputable smith and have them remove the existing device, install and pin a BCM comp, and then send it back to you.


    Right now is a really bad time to wait for factory offerings exactly how you want them. I'd just buy whatever 14.5" NSR you can find and have it smithed to your specifications.

    On a side note, a lot of NSR uppers are coming with Battlecomps and those are relatively easy to find. You may want to give one of those a try before deciding on the BCM comp.

    You sure can. I have special ordered a few without muzzle devices already.

    I'd email Rainier Arms. I have no doubt they can help you get what you want.

    I thought MA was an AWB state, or does that not matter for this application? Just curious.
    Stick


    Board policy mandates I state that I shoot for BCM. I have also done work for 200 or so manufacturers within the firearm community. I am prior service, a full time LEO, firearm instructor, armorer, TL, martial arts instructor, and all around good guy.

    I also shoot and write for various publications. Let me know if you know cool secrets or have toys worthy of an article...

    Pinned comps and Brakes ok in mass. No flash hiders. I run pinned 14.5's with comps.

    I think that might be a problem if it comes with threads and no comp. Not sure though.

    If its a barrel or upper, don't put it in a rifle until its got a comp pinned. A complete rifle shipped this was would be a problem. I usually get stripped barrels and they are compliant upon completion of assembly before they are ever put on a gun.

    Who is going to be the best to order a upper from, noveske or a dealer?
