The Noveske N4 Recon delivers top-tier accuracy, unmatched durability, and battlefield-proven reliability—purpose-built for shooters who demand premium performance from a 16” 5.56 rifle. With a 416R stainless match barrel, the N4 Recon is tuned for precision with a mid-length gas system, pinned low-profile gas block, and hand-polished feed ramps for flawless cycling.

At the core is Noveske’s 4th Generation 7075-T6 billet receiver set, finished in Type III hardcoat anodizing and multiple Cerakote options for long-term durability. The rifle features the legendary NSR 15” free-floating M-LOK handguard, the Noveske Love Handle ambidextrous charging handle, and a full-auto rated bolt carrier group built from Carpenter 158 steel and magnetic-particle inspected for reliability under hard use.

Fully ambidextrous controls—including bolt release, mag release, and Radian Talon 45/90 safety—combine with an oversized magwell, integrated trigger guard, and a crisp Noveske Single-Stage Trigger for fast, confident handling. Outfitted with B5 Systems Bravo furniture, MBUS Pro steel sights, and a Pig Pen suppressor-compatible muzzle device, the N4 Recon arrives mission-ready right out of the box.

Lightweight, accurate, and engineered for serious shooters, the Noveske N4 Recon stands as a flagship 16” 5.56 rifle—perfect for duty, competition, and high-performance defensive use.

At the time of this review, I will be the 104th 5-Star review! I mean, c’mon, how often do you ever see a business with such a rock solid reputation like that? But im here to tell you guys, that its for real! James and Chris are down to earth, personable, intelligent, and professional all at the same time. I purchased a Staccato P from them, and they made the entire process super easy, and just had a great experience. Im already making a 2nd purchase! They definitely gained a loyal customer, and I will no doubt be using them for my future gun builds.

I’ve dealt with these guys for only about three months, but I can attest to the fact that this is the hardest working crew in the business, client always comes first, shipping is immediate and they will bend backwards to assist customers… also it is amazing to have a company take such pride in what they sell, this is truly a “white glove”, premier dealer!

I’ve been a customer since October of last year and will continue to be, the level of service is top tier! James and Chris have been absolutely amazing and I truly believe they will top any other firearms dealers in the country, I personally have vowed my allegiance to them as my number 1 firearm supplier and if you knew me that’s saying a lot as i am very picky! All I can say is don’t hesitate and check them out!

My experience with TAG Firearms has been great. The customer service is Top Notch and has been On Point every time. They have been able to supply all the hard to find Q Parts and Firearms. Been dealing with Chris directly and he has been very knowledgeable, gives no rude attitude, provides fast response, and provide tracking with fast delivery. I am a repeat customer and highly recommend TAG Firearms. Keep it going TAG Firearms.

Chris at Tag Firearms has been amazing to work with. Bought a Q Honey Badger and Trash Panda through him for a great price, and he couldn't have made the process easier. I have over 20 stamps from more than a dozen dealers and I've never encountered any stores as professional, responsive, and helpful as his. He's been available 24/7 for any and all questions I've had, whether through text/phone/email or even IG, and is super knowledgable about every product they sell (believe me I asked a lot of questions). Honestly can't say enough good things about this shop, already planning my next purchases through them. Hit him up for your NFA goods, you won't regret it!!
