Its nice to see you guys finally release the info, as opposed to the fiasco on the other site. People can get direct and legit info now, and thats a good thing. I wish John would have had one on hand when I was down there.
As a personal friend of the owner of Omniguns, and having bought through them, I can vouch that getting a Noveske through them (they are a distributor, not just a dealer) is the way to go. This particular rifle can only be had through Omniguns. Furthermore, Kevin is a great guy and will deal honestly with you; you will not find a more friendly or helpful dealer than he.
Where in the DFW area are you guys located? I am in Grand Prairie and would like to see one of these in person. Dang I dont really need another 5.56 gun but that looks nice.
In my opinion i think that is one of the nicest configurations on the market right now! Good job Noveske and Omni Guns and Ammo. Omni you have served us well in California thus far and appreciate your business!
I appreciate your comment but I made a decision with the consult of many black rifle professionals that this would be the best configuration of this rifle. Most purchasers of this platform will never shoot it enough to warrant the difference in durability between the stainless and the chrome lined version. While we are always cognizant of the tactical professional, we realize that significant numbers of these rifles will go to folks that never exceed 1500 rounds through the chamber. That’s why Omni Guns & Ammo opted for a precision platform. I appreciate your concern, and your concern is validated. However, in these tough economic times, we believed the stainless option is the best platform for our domestic customer base. We will always make special consideration for law enforcement, military, and other unnamed tactical components that require the very best. Thank you for your comments.
