    I think maybe you misunderstood my post.

    I wasn't saying "what's so special about this gun?", what I was saying is "if you like everything about this gun but one part you can simply re-create it yourself from parts" in response to the kinds of posts we always see when a new rifle is announced saying "I like it except for...". The gun is what the gun is. Those that are interested will pony up for it and make do with the parts they don't like.

    I agree. The wrench needed is more than some rails. I like the URX but not enough to buy the tools to put them on. Other than that nothing any more special than a top flight AR manufacturers best effort, which is nice.

    I'm tracking with you Rob. Posting from my phone usually leads to an abbreviated explanation on my part, but that is basically the point I was also trying to make. The parts used are readily available, so the upper config. could be reproduced easily with the end users choice of muzzle devices, which seems to be the primary point of concern for some posters. Being a 14.5" w/ a pinned muzzle device, limits the appeal in this case due to end user's personal preferences. The rifle is a great new offering as a factory rifle, but won't appeal to everyone for various reasons. Manufacturers just can't seem to win when it come to public opinion on the net. There is always someone who says "I like it, but... (insert personal preference here)." I have to give kudos in this case to Noveske and their distributor though. Since I'm not a fan of the SWS / TRX offerings on factory Noveske rifles, I would love to see more options with the URX rails from Noveske. As it stands, this rifle is a very nice configuration and I'm glad to see it available in the market.

    Kevin, I have to tell you I visited my FFL Buddy the other day and he had on his rack this gun. A Noveske "Project Ares" I have owned several brands of AR's, and never had the desire to purchase a gun on this level. I'm just a shooter, I hunt, and I collect guns. Of course, I have no issue with a high quality gun like this, but for me and my hobby, I just never considered owning one. I'm more of a quantity over quality guy, not a cheapskate, but I just never looked into a gun like this.

    My FFL Buddy, is a real friendly guy, and was showing this Noveske. My eyes have NEVER seen such a masterpiece as this weapon. I am now a Noveske fanboy, and I'm currently working towards adding one of these to my collection. I like any gun-nut have a few other projects going, but I will definitely have one by the end of the year.

    It was like the entire gun was carved from a solid piece of steel. If I were to build a gun with bells & whistles, it would be this gun.

    I want to congratulate you on putting together such a incredible weapon. I never knew what my "Grail gun" was until I handled this weapon.

    Thank you, I look forward to being your customer. It helps that I live in Lewisville

    The urx is really what sets this upper apart from other Noveske offerings. If you want a Troy rail, order it direct from Noveske. They already offer it on some factory uppers.

    ^^^ THIS ^^^ as I've seen another stocking Noveske dealer/distributor @ the SATX show.

    Last month he had the Nov/TR rifle with the FFL & a new color Diplomat SBR. Need to find his card or see what Omni has, so back to the original question.
