Noveske N4 Infidel Complete Upper Receiver 13.7" 5.56 NATO 16" OAL P&W 03002553 UPC: 840906135723
Product Description
The Noveske N4 Infidel 13.7" Complete Upper Receiver is a premium-grade AR-15 barrel assembly designed to deliver match-grade accuracy, duty-grade reliability, and optimized dwell time. Built around a 13.7-inch stainless steel barrel with a 1:7 twist rate, this upper features a pin-and-weld Pig Pen flash hider that brings the overall barrel length to a compliant 16 inches, avoiding NFA Short-Barreled Rifle (SBR) classification while preserving a compact front-end profile. The barrel is precision-machined, air-gauged, and features Noveske's proprietary Infidel profile paired with an intermediate gas system for smooth cycling and reduced recoil impulse.
Encasing the barrel assembly is a 15-inch Noveske NSR M-LOK free-float handguard, providing an continuous top Picatinny rail and M-LOK mounting slots at 3, 6, and 9 o'clock for lights, lasers, and vertical grips. The upper receiver is forged from 7075-T6 aluminum, finished in a durable black Cerakote, and comes pre-assembled with a Noveske Black Love Handle ambidextrous charging handle and a reliable, black-nitride-finished M16-profile bolt carrier group (BCG). Every component is tolerance-tested to ensure seamless integration into any standard Mil-Spec AR-15 lower receiver.
Engineered for hard-use tactical applications and performance shooting, the N4 Infidel upper eliminates front-end weight without sacrificing barrel rigidity. The stainless steel barrel material offers superior thermal stability during high-volume strings of fire, ensuring minimal point-of-impact shift. Combined with the gas efficiency of the intermediate gas system, this upper provides shooters with a flatter-shooting, softer-recoiling platform engineered for immediate deployment.
Armorer Bench Notes & Real-World Staging Guidance:
Fitment Matrix: Fits standard Mil-Spec AR-15 / M4 lower receivers (requires standard carbine or H-series buffer system setup).
- Verify the host lower receiver is completely unloaded, magazine removed, and clear of live ammunition.
- Inspect lower receiver pivot and takedown pins for proper detent tension and clean alignment holes.
- Align the front pivot pin lug of the Noveske upper receiver with the lower receiver pivot pin hole; push the pivot pin fully through.
- Pivot upper receiver down onto lower receiver until flush against the lower buffer tube tower.
- Push the rear takedown pin fully through to lock upper and lower receivers together; check for excessive receiver wobble.
- Perform a manual function check: rack the charging handle back, verify proper BCG movement, release, verify bolt locks into battery, and test fire-control group safety/sear engagement.
- Mount desired optics/accessories onto the NSR M-LOK handguard using torque specifications provided by the accessory manufacturer (typically 15–20 in-lbs for M-LOK screws).
