Stainless Barrel, 32+1, FDE Cerakote, Short Barreled RifleThe Noveske N9 Gen 4 Space Creep (part number 02000831-FDE) is a factory 9mm short barreled rifle that brings Noveske's 4th Generation billet receivers and NSR handguard to a pistol-caliber carbine. It runs a 10.5-inch 416R stainless steel barrel on a direct blowback action, feeds from Colt-style 9mm magazines, and wears FDE Cerakote over Type III hard coat anodizing. Fully ambidextrous controls, a TriggerTech two-stage trigger, B5 Systems furniture and Magpul MBUS Pro steel sights make it ready to run out of the box, and it ships with one 32-round Noveske marked magazine.Why Buy It10.5 in. 416R stainless barrel: 1:12 twist, hand polished chamber and feed cone, serialized for quality controlSuppressor-friendly muzzle: 1/2x28 threads with a Noveske marked tri-lug adapter and thread protectorDirect blowback 9mm: simple, reliable operation with a DLC coated, Noveske marked bolt carrier group4th Generation billet receivers: 7075-T6 aluminum, hard coat anodized, then FDE CerakoteColt-style magazines: oversized flared magazine well, paddle and AR-style magazine releasesTriggerTech two-stage trigger: 5 lb pull weightReady to shoot: B5 Systems Bravo stock, B5 Type 22 grip, Magpul MBUS Pro steel sights, one 32-round magazineBarrel and Operating SystemThe Space Creep's 10.5-inch barrel is machined from 416R stainless steel with a 1:12 twist, a rate that suits the full range of common 9mm bullet weights. Noveske hand polishes the chamber and the feed cone so rounds move from the magazine into the chamber smoothly, and each barrel is individually serialized for quality control. The rifle runs on direct blowback, which keeps the design simple with no gas system to clean or tune. Up front, the muzzle is threaded 1/2x28 and carries a Noveske marked tri-lug adapter and thread protector, so you can mount a compatible suppressor or muzzle device.

The upper has an anti-rotation interface with the handguard so the rail stays aligned, and it is charged with the Noveske Love Handle ambidextrous charging handle. Inside is a diamond-like coated, full auto compatible, Noveske marked bolt carrier group with properly staked grade 8 American made gas key bolts and an M16 style extractor.NSR-9.75 M-LOK HandguardThe Gen 4 NSR-9.75 free-floating handguard offers M-LOK mounting positions every 45 degrees, so lights, lasers and grips can go right where you want them, along with a 1913 Picatinny top rail for optics and sights. A lightweight American made steel barrel nut secures it. On the 10.5-inch barrel, the 9.75-inch handguard ends about .080 inch from the barrel thread shoulder, which leaves the right spacing to add a suppressor.Lower Receiver, Trigger and FurnitureThe matching Gen 4 lower is machined from 7075-T6 billet aluminum and finished in hard coat anodizing and FDE Cerakote. Its oversized flared magazine well accepts Colt-style 9mm magazines, and it has an integrated oversized trigger guard and a fixed ejector. Controls are fully ambidextrous: a bolt release on both sides, a paddle-style magazine release in addition to the AR-style right-side button, and a Radian Talon 45/90 safety selector. Noveske adds a properly staked QD sling mount endplate, Noveske marked takedown and pivot pins, and an adjustable tension screw for a tight upper-to-lower fit. A TriggerTech two-stage drop-in trigger with a 5 lb pull weight handles fire control. A six-position mil-spec impact extruded carbine extension with a Vltor A5H4 buffer and carbine action spring carries the B5 Systems Bravo stock, the B5 Systems Type 22 grip fills the hand, and Magpul MBUS Pro steel front and rear sights are adjustable and fold down when you mount an optic. Pick up extra magazines to go with it.Size and HandlingWith the stock collapsed, the Space Creep measures 25.75 inches to the end of the thread protector and weighs 6.25 lb dry, so it is compact and easy to handle indoors, in vehicles and at the range, with the low recoil of 9mm.SpecificationsBrand: Noveske RifleworksModel: N9 Gen 4 Space Creep SBRPart number: 02000831-FDEUPC: 840906144787Type: Short barreled rifle (SBR)Caliber: 9mmAction: Semi-automatic, direct blowbackBarrel: 10.5 in., 416R stainless steel, serializedTwist rate: 1:12Muzzle: 1/2x28 threads, Noveske tri-lug adapter and thread protectorHandguard: Gen 4 NSR-9.75 M-LOK, free floating, 1913 top railReceivers: Gen 4 billet, 7075-T6 aluminumFinish: Type III hard coat anodized, FDE CerakoteBolt carrier group: DLC coated, full auto compatible, M16 style extractorCharging handle: Noveske Love Handle, ambidextrousSafety: Radian Talon 45/90, ambidextrousMagazine release: Ambidextrous paddle plus AR-style buttonTrigger: TriggerTech two-stage, 5 lbBuffer: Vltor A5H4, carbine action springStock: B5 Systems Bravo, 6-position carbine extensionGrip: B5 Systems Type 22Sights: Magpul MBUS Pro steel front and rearMagazine type: Colt-style 9mmCapacity: 32+1Magazines: 1 x 32 round Noveske markedOverall length: 25.75 in. with stock collapsedWeight: 6.25 lb dryFrequently Asked QuestionsWhat magazines does the Space Creep use?Colt-style 9mm magazines.
