Is there a need for more Cdn made AR parts?

Noveske upper is a CMT/Stag upper.

Its actually a Vltor MUR upper reciever. This exact reciever but with fluted stainless barrel. h ttp://noveskerifleworks.com/cgi-bin/imcart/display.cgi?item_id=u-145p-556&cat=56&page=1&search=&since=&status=

Hey Rick,

I recently purchased a Noveske Afghan upper and it won't mate to the ATR lower. It seems as though there is too much material on the top part of the lower. I can get the pivot pin in but when I try to put the takedown pin in it won't go cause I can't get the upper and lower close enough together for the pin to go all the way through. I even tried to put the takedown pin in first then tried to put the pivot pin in to no avail. Any Ideas?

I had the same problem with Vltor upper and some of my Stag lowers. Some worked some experienced the same problem as you describe.

Vltor is a kick ass upper regardless of the fact.

I am a newb as I never had problems with putting any other upper on the this lower before Just the Noveske one won't fit. I have no idea how to tighten the screw at the bottom of the receiver. Anyone have any pics or a link to someplace what could show me how its done?

Put a wrench in it, turn it. Remember; lefty loosey, right tighty.

If you need help putting your pants on, drop me a PM.


Ok enough picking on you, my guess is you can't see where to tighten the screw because it is under the grip. Remove it, be careful not to the lose the safety detent and spring!

Ya I figured it was under the grip but when I look down the hole I can't tell if its an allen key or screwdriver to tighten. I tried a couple small screw drivers a flat and star to no avail as well now as some small allen keys.

A 1/8" Allen key should do the trick

Also, if it's pretty close to going in once it's bottomed out, you could try to take it out
and grind off a little bit of the side that has the hex in it.

Ya its pretty much bottomed out and still won't go so I will try and file off a bit of material on the hex side

I'd just take it right out and see if your upper fits before you go messing around with something that might not even help.

Or call Rick tomorrow during business hours and get him to talk you through it. Or find one of the CGNers up there in McMisery to help you.

Shainline still around there?

Just got the newest batch back from Ano, they should be shipping out over the next few days to those who have 1 on order. There are some still available for those who would like a lower.
