Noveske KX3

[Blackstar65]

I would like to use a Noveske KX3 on my up coming build if an whne they ever produce them again. I plan on attaching it to a 14.5 in barrel that I will have pinned. What do you folks think of this plan?

I personally don't think it's a good plan. I don't even think they're recommended for any barrel over 12.5".

What are you trying to achieve by using the KX3? Depending on what you're looking for, there are better and cheaper options.

No reason other than I like the look of them on the rifle. This for my personal rifle. As I have only shot a stock 6920 with an a2 flash suppressor I have no clue what the others on the market offer. I do want something that aids control if possible.

I hear they work well on shorter barrels.

I wouldn't buy a muzzle device based on looks alone. I was thinking about using one for the SBR I'm in the process of completing. They were pretty much made for SBR's because of the weight they add to the front. They help balance out a short barrel.

As I understand ; the two main charistics are : Redirect muzzle blast directly downrange , and away from shooter. Increase backpressure for improved reliability on certain short bbl gas systems, similar to the effect of a supressor.

Multiple other designs will direct blast downrange.

I have one on my 7.5" SBR and it works great.

They are often misused. They are for guns that have insufficient dwell time/undergassed.

You should ONLY add one if the weapon wont cycle properly.

Adding one will GROSSLY overgass your weapon if its not needed and accelerate wear, at worst the Receiver Extension can fail and lodge the Buffer in your shoulder.

Barrel length has little significance on wether it should be used.

Thanks again clandestine I will just stick with a A2 flash suppressor.

Form follows function.

I plan on attaching it to a 13.7 inch barrel that I will have pinned.

fixed it for you

Blackstar, if your looking for something that will help keep the muzzle down and reduce flash, you can check out the Battle Comps and the BCM Gunfighters.

Here is a link to Rainier Arms. There is 7 pages of muzzle devices to look at.
