I did a Noveske N6 Google search, and this was the top hit.
No, they don’t. They told me they wouldn’t know if/when they could get them again.
Maybe they’ll come out with a Gen. 2 that uses standard mags.
When I suggested that Noveske would be rolling out with Gen2 FFL type lowers that ate SR-25 magazines (along with models being available with NSR rails), Todd seemed to skirt the subject with the implication that it was a question of when, not if.
I was disappointed a while back when I realized that Noveske seemingly got out of the 7.62 game. But I have seen rumors around here (like the post above) that they have something new and better coming. Just don’t know when.
Well that’s okay, but I hope they still produce Gen 1 lowers, because I have a bunch of Armalite components for a future build, but we can’t get Armalite lowers in CA.
That’s the part I’m convinced isn’t going to happen. Even CMMG gave up on their M1A magazine compatible lowers (and they went with the G3 ones even) as far as I can tell, and given that so many folks want PMags at low prices, I think the reason the Armalite .308’s are so well priced is that they’re trying to keep that lower design viable long enough to make the tooling pay off.
Hell even Armalite makes a lower that takes PMAGS.
I would venture to guess that the days of M1A pattern mags are quickly running low. Hopefully that will be one step closer to a standardization of the big boy ARs.
Rumor is that they are redesigning the N6 for an end-of-the-year release. Speculation is that it will use PMAGs. Wait and see.
So, I will maybe be able to use my Armalite upper with the new lowers?
i don’t believe so 
the new ar-10a lowers use a matching ar-10a upper. the rest of the components should work though.
I sure hope not.
On the upside, if we’re looking at another panic buying open season, you should be able to part with the Armalite parts you’ve already got (to a state where the AR-10 Mk1 receivers are attainable) to folks who just overspent on that lower.
I never saw the appeal in the M1A magazines, since there weren’t so many that prices were way down, and with the number of .mil contracts for SR-25 magwell systems and how many manufacturers are currently using that setup, I just don’t see that system going any further.
Aero Precision makes an AR10 lower that is Armalite compatible. Are they legal in ca?
What is the boards consensus on mega lowers?
Mega is good stuff.
And keep in mind that the lower is a non-stress component. So you could probably get away with a DPMS lower as long as you put bondo over the roll mark so that people would not know.
l like the idea of the mega upper and lower matched set. Might have to be my next buy after the noveske build is done
Yes. But I haven’t been able to find any of them lately either.
