SBR Build Suggestions

[TheCherokeeKid]

Hi everyone. Quick question. I am putting together a Noveske 8.5" Upper. Currently I have an 8.5" Noveske Barrel, a Noveske N4 stripped upper, BCM BCG and BCM Charging handle. I need a suggestion for a rail. I also have the KX3 Pig Brake. I would like the rail to be long enough so it doesn't completely suck the brake into the rail.

Any suggestions on a good rail set up for this 8.5" Barrel??? any help would be appreciated. I know certain rails will work with the Pig Brake but I really don't want to hide the brake at all but I would like the brake to be as close to the rail as possible.

Thanks!!!!

Congrats to for beating TEXAS today..

Noveske NSR 7inch. But would be better with a 7.5 barrel

what requirements do you have for the rail beside clearance issues with the pig?
i.e., are you planning on attaching accessories? what accessories and what position do you want them to be in?
Or, are you just wanting a rail as a place to put your other dominant hand?

I'm a lefty, so as far as accessories go not much really. May put some Troy sights on or an Aimpoint. I want to try to keep it as light as possible

Noveske NSR 9" IMHO. More than half the muzzle device would be visible.

Issue is the pig won't fit as the NSR is too small of internal diameter. 8.5 barrel with pig and 9 inch NSR won't work.

not specifically what you are looking for, but there are measurements for the inside diameter for several rail systems.

Why a 8.5" with kx3? Why not a 10.5" with A2?

If you're set in the 8.5 and KX3, the problem is that rails are generally 7", 9", 10", 12", 13.5", and rarely longer than that. For a 8.5" build you either get a rail like a Rainier Arms / Samson Evolution in 9", or virtually any 7" rail of your choice.

Ah... It's been a while since I abandoned my want for the flaming pig in favor for quieter things. After perusing the link above, it was the DD MFR that I thinking of that had a similar look to the NSR.
