    Official Noveske STS thread

    Per discussions with Stickman, he's agreed to shed some light on the upcoming Magpul/Noveske project. This is a Magpul-made, Noveske/Magpul co-developed polymer safety lever.

    This is what we've got so far:

    All yours Stickman!

    Thanks for kicking off this thread.

    Per the MT article, you might want to add to your description above, e.g., polymer lever(s) with steel internals.

    The STS uses Magpul SSG selector levers for the SCAR. The levers are reversible on the Ambi version, or you can choose to run the short lever on the RH selector.

    The center drum section is steel, hardened, with a nitride finish.

    The throw is 60 deg.

    The slot for the detent is designed to make it a bit easier going back onto safe, while keeping a very positive feel.

    Currently in production, they will be available from Noveske dealers in about two weeks.

    While I would doubt there are any current plans to do the full Magpul color spectrum, if the demand was there it should be easy enough to do. The big question would be regarding the demand for it, and I'm not sure people really care that much about selector/ safety colors.

    Here is a quick picture showing the lever at its 60 degree position.

    Stick, is there anyway to post some macro pictures of the internals? Detent grooves, center barrel etc.? Maybe some close-up disassembled pics?

    Probably not for awhile, I've got a heavy schedule right now with articles, pictures, and the 5k 300blk testing in addition to my cop job. The next time I'm shooting macro work or have a lighting setup which will work, I'll try to get some shots done of it.
