    I agree. I've been using Noveske rifles/barrels/uppers for years and plan to keep on buying them. They probably aren't the best "value" in the AR world but I've never had a problem with one and their barrels last forever.

    Having said that, I also agree with what Iraqgunz says above about the market being saturated. It's certainly a buyer's market now more than I ever remember as far as quality choices. You now have Colt, DD, BCM, Novekse, KAC, Rainier and a few others that are all proven choices. I'm not brand loyal to anyone. I tend to stick with things that work and that includes all of the ones I listed for me.

    I am sorry but the post you quoted is doing just that for BCM Jack - listing out the price for each part. Do you really think that a BCM lower (with ACT) with a price of $425 provides more than twice the value of a $200 Palmetto State lower (with ACT)?

    The prices are what the target customers are willing to pay. You consider a $425 lower to be fair value for BCM even though the same functionality can be provided for much much cheaper. Others consider the same for Noveske. At the end of the day, your thinking is not much different from theirs

    P.S. I will wait until they release that upper to go with my NSR handguards.

    Dont know, dont care.

    If I spend $2k on a rifle, it sure aint gonna be for a poodle shooting 223/5.56mm.

    These boutique ARs are like buying a designer purse, or pair of shoes. Then bragging about how much you can afford to spend.

    My DS Arms SA-58, fn/fal cost $1,300. To me, that price is the cut off point for a plane Jane AR-15. The next time I spend more than $1,300 on a rifle it is going to be an M1A Springfield.

    My next Ar is either going to be a BCM or colt 6920, then add the mods I want. If the price after mods is over $1,200 or $1,300, oh well. I am talking base price or a plane Jane AR, I will not spend over a certain amount.

    14.5" barreled Colt and FN "plain Jane" carbines have put quite a few of Terry Taliban's friends in the dirt, and done so very well, no doubt!
    That said, some people are happy to buy the Noveske, even though the Honda Civic will get them from point A to point B very well, the BMW 3-series offers them a more personally desirable means of conveyance.

    I wonder if the rifle I ordered last year will eventually show up as a GENII or a GENIII....

    By the time you get it they may have the new site up showing off the GenIV's....
    98% Sarcastic. 100% Overthinking things and making up reasons for buying a new firearm.

    I fully agree, it boils down to what someone wants, and what they can afford.

    For example, I would love to have a bmw, I just can not afford one.

    One thing is for sure, if someone handed me an ar15 that cost $2k, I would not turn it down.

    The Noveske rifles look awesome, and I would like to have one. I just can not justify spending that kind of money when a colt, DD and BCM will give me the same reliability and at a lower cost.

    You've made mention of this a few times now. I assume you've contacted Noveske customer service and haven't gotten the response you want?

    Yes, I've asked Megan a few times. They have asked me to contact them thru my Dealer and have so far declined to give me any specifics directly. My Dealers' answer: They are behind, and we'll see it when we see it...

    I'm biting my tongue to not be a pest., but it will be a year next month. THEN I get to wait another year for the NFA...
