    Noveske, Daniel Defense, or other? (CHF Barrel)

    So I'm getting into a 12.5" build where this Carbine will be my Emergency Preparedness/SHFT gun. So although accuracy means alot, I also need quality to last. My go to ammo is Green Tip. I'm seeing all kinds of recommendations about all these different companies and what not. So I would like to reach out to the members here for input. I've narrowed it down b/w the 2 companies in the title. Are they the best in your opinion or is there something better? Price doesn't matter too much for me. I'm from Canada so most things are already expensive compared to our friends down South. And on top of that, this is a life protection tool. So I don't want to cheap out on it.

    Hodge Defense and Centurion, in that order. After that, Daniel Defense.

    ITAR matters, too, no?

    Thank you for the Input. I just get a dealer (Aztech Armoury or Irunguns) to import stuff for me.

    Noveske’s barrels are stupid overgassed, at least the 16” ones.

    I use Centurion Arms for the use you mention. My 12.5 CA barrel has seen a lot of use over the years and I doubt I’ll ever shoot it out. Solid accuracy and reliability. Not all CHF barrels are the same, not even the ones that come from the same manufacture.

    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...

    Certainly not the way John intended things to be. The sad truth is that more poeple will complain about a small port than a large one. Even when that small hole is the correct size, a company will get complaints that it won’t run with the cheapest reloads someone bought at a gun show.

    If you can find a Hodge or Centurion then yeah, but 12.5's aren't usually available from these two, they are from DD. I think 12.5 is a great barrel length, wish they would become more popular so right sized rails would become available.

    100% agree. I own multiples of both these barrels and they all perform lights out assuming you are going to suppress them. They will also work unsuppressed but can be picky and you will need a hot load like your m855 green tip that you currently favor.

    I dont know when Noveske lost their way, but their quality died before John.
