Noveske Stripped Uppers????

[Bonez87]

I am having trouble finding a noveske stripped upper. Does anyone know where I can find one? Or has anyone heard when they are going to be back in stock everywhere? Any info is greatly appreciated! Thanks

The chainsaw uppers are the blems arent they?

Yep, usually just cosmetic though. You could cover them with a touch up marker or just use and abuse it so it'll get scratched anyway.

Thats true. My lower isnt a blem so I was kinda wanting to pick up an upper that isnt a blem.

[Bonez87]

Has anyone seen any anywhere yet? Im still coming up with nothing!

Have you ever seen one in person? Just curious as to how bad the cosmetics are?

No idea. From my understanding, the whole "Chainsaw" thing is that it has some cosmetic flaws. Not enough to keep it from being usable but not perfect enough to be sold as a perfect product. I suspect possibly some small scratches. But completely able to be used with no issues what so ever. I would have no problem buying them. It is a good marketing ploy. Kind of a cool custom logo on it too to go along with the already super cool Noveske product.

I am pretty new to the AR world but read about as much as I can an browse the interwebz quite a bit window shopping.

I could live with a few small scratches but I would hate to get it and its dinged or nicked. I wouldnt like that. I guess ill hold out a little longer to see if the others come back in stock. I sent noveske an email asking them when they would have more in stock but i havent heard anything back yet.

Are you interested in the Chainsaw version for some reason other than it being cheaper? If not, you could always buy one and more than likely be able to sell it easliy for whatever you paid if you decided you couldn't live with it. Or better yet, call Rainier and ask them to look at it for you and describe what you see. People in the industry seem to be really helpful more so than other industries. Just a thought.

No, I would rather not have the chainsaw model but that is all that I can find in stock and thats only at rainiers. I hoping I get an email back at the beginning of the week from noveske with some good news.

I would hate for my assault rifle to get digned or scratched.... Dude, you are making us AR guys look like nancy boys in front of the AK guys.

Noveske uppers and lowers are available thru Noveske or Noveske dealers. I order mine straight from them, but if I didn't get them for cost I would never buy them, they are WAY overpriced for nothing but a logo.

Way, way stupidly overpriced.

Even at dealer cost they are what the other outfits charge retail.

 

[iDominate]

Sounds good. If I run across any sites that have them, I will let you know. Otherwise, good luck with Noveske!

Sorry I like my guns to be nice. I would order directly from them but they are Out Of Stock. I dont mind paying a little extra for the stuff I really want.

Thanks man, I appreciate it.

I am with you, dings and scratches don't matter. Everything is subjective for the most part. Some people want collectibles and some want a gun they can run through the ground. I can understand either mentality.

I believe the chainsaws (2nd gen blem) are only different from the other gen 2 by the engraving/roll marks. The idea of putting a chainsaw on the lower let's people know that it is in faCt a blemished lower, whereas with the 1st gen noveske stamped a number 2 inside the lower where it is not noTicable unless the gun was broken down. I've never seen a blem lower from noveske with scratches or dings, but that's not saying it hasn't happened. There was a group buy for a batch of 2nd gen chainsaws at a steal of a deal recently.
