Awesome! I always enjoyed getting the emails with stories and pics about the rifles out in the wild.

Hey folks, a buddy tipped me off on this thread. Thanks for all the kind words! The shop has been closed for about a year and a half. Basically, it boiled down to not having the capital for equipment to expand my machining/production ability to where I wanted to take the business and the increased saturation of the AR market. I didn't want to own a "gun shop", I wanted to be creating and innovating. My niche was my 6.5 Grendel offerings. In late 2018 I had finalized my design for special AR15 upper/lowers that accepted the Magpul 6.8 SPC mags and was talking to another company that was going to start producing 6.5 Grendel metal mags made that would fit these larger magwells ( TFB post about the receivers). Depending on who you were this was a big deal because it allowed for longer OAL on the Grendel (and other) cartridges which could improve ballistic qualities while staying in the AR15 size class and maintaining all the parts compatibility aside from the mag catch and mags. Long story short, after machining/shipping an initial run of the receiver sets, I sat down looked at the production data, ran the numbers and it was apparent that I would need to greatly increase my machining capability to really make it worth producing them. At the same time the 6.5 Grendel had really taken off and other companies with cheaper offerings were starting to take a bite out of my 6.5 Grendel pie. So, I decided it was probably a good time to move onto other endeavors. I sent my designs/models and some samples for the 6.8 receivers to David Famiglietti at New Frontier Armory, who was interested in producing them, and folded up shop. David unexpectedly passed away days later, however, I checked a month or so ago and it looks like they do produce the receivers. Anyways, Thanks to all that patronized the shop. I enjoyed getting to meet so many of y'all from this board!

Not the 6.8 SPC, it's a telescopic cartridge. While it sounds like the bullet is going to be 6.8mm diameter, I'd be willing to bet it will be a different design than the squatty bullet the 6.8SPC uses if it's going to meet their long range claims.

Is it true that a combination of treble hooks and a 9mm is all a man needs to get by?

incompatibility with Gen3 PMAGs

This was largely a Magpul issue and not unique to Noveske. I have some extended arm mag catches (about 30 thou longer) that will likely sort this out for your lower if the issue you are having with the Gen 3 PMags is unreliable bolt hold open after the last shot. Text me if your interested.

Not necessarily so long as you can get zoning approval at the location you want locensed. If that is your house some, cities/parishes/counties/HOAs may not allow it and the ATF will check. If it's not an issue you can get an FFL at your house.

He is incorrect about the value of a legal full auto M4/M16 that you would be making under the license though. The only way its "MUCH" more than a standard receiver set is if you are giving up your SOT and a 07/02 FFL wants to purchase it. Even then, it's less than 1k. Otherwise, you're not selling them to LEOs for much more than standard rifles, if you can even get a contract, and you're certainly not selling them to the fricking military. The only other person who would buy them is 01 FFLs with SOT and a demo letter which are hard to get and even harder to get for a M4/M16. Not to mention you would need to invest many thousands into a CNC mill, tooling and fixtures to make them if your going to attract any kind of legit buyer.
