    Noveske 12.5 GP Carbine

    I am a huge fan of the 12.5" barrel. I feel that is is as close to the "do it all AR" as they come. It is short enough to work in vehicles and confined spaces yet it is long enough to reach out to 500 meters and can stabilize the heavier 5.56 rounds(MK262). Overall the best GP set up if you have only one rifle, I do not but that is irrelevant.

    To start off I wanted to set this up as my primary carbine. So it is loaded to everything that I need it to do. I have had this in may different configurations over the last few years but this is the final product.

    UPPER:

    - Rainier Arms Upper
    - Noveske 12.5" CHF Barrel with pinned Gas Block
    - Noveske complete BCG
    - Vltor Gunfighter Charging Handle (Large Latch)
    - LaRue 11.0 Rail with Index Clips
    - LaRue FUG
    - AAC Blackout 51T Muzzle Brake
    - Troy Sights, front and rear
    - Trijicon TA-33G-H with LaRue Mount
    - LDI DBAL-D2 Class 1 IR Laser (Red Visible) with LaRue Mount
    - SureFire Scout with LaRue Mount
    - AAC Mini4


    LOWER:

    - DPMS lower (I have had this for about 15 years now and more rounds than I can even think about)
    - CMT lower parts kit
    - CMC Single Stage 3-3.5lb Trigger Group (I do not like two stage triggers for a fighting carbine)
    - KNS pins
    - Noveske STS 60 Degree Ambidextrous Safety
    - MagPul Trigger Guard
    - Tango Down Battlegrip BG-17 (very heavily stippled)
    - BFG Redi-Mod
    - MagPul BAD
    - Vltor eMOD Stock
    - Vltor Buffer Tube, Nut & Spring
    - Noveske Endplate
    - Colt H2 buffer

    Not pictured is my very old BFG VCAS. I like the PMAG 40s as my first up mags and have PMAG 30s in mt kit. The custom paint job is just some Krylon colors I had, no real pattern just paind the stuff that was standing out. I still need to paint the DBAL-D2 and the Mini4.

    Here are some bad cell phone pics.







    In no way do I make any money from anyone related to the firearms industry.

    That looks like an amazing do it all setup. Why no 2-stage triggers on a fighting rifle?
    I paint spaceship parts.

    Thanks. I really like this set up.

    No real need for it and a two stage trigger is designed more for persision shooting. I even have a single stage Timney 3 lbs trigger on my Noveske 18" SPR.

    Man this this is Bad Ars! I'm considering getting my LMT barrel chopped to 12.5". Because like you state, it is an ultimate length. Nice!

    I almost went with the 12.5 Piston MRP when I got into the 12.5 game. I know that LMT makes a 12" DI 6.8 MRP Barrel but only a piston in 5.56.

    Right. I'm considering that piston platform as well. I know which way I'm going in about a month.

    Are you thinking of cutting down a 14.5" barrel? That is the way I would go.
