In October 2019 we tested a new product by APS called Noveske GEN 4 10.5 Shorty(LINK). This was the first APS replica made as a part of the Noveske license supplied by EMG.
Not much later, in November, a slightly shorter version of the Noveske GEN 4 replica debuted on the market - the 7.94 SBR.
And just a week later, the GEN 4 13.7 Infidel appeared.
Technically, the replicas are the same. They are powered by a gearbox called by the manufacturer "eSilver Edge", with a programmable electronic control module. The programming button is located outside the gearbox in a place located inside the magazine well. The module has the following modes:
The basic difference between the versions comes down to the length of the barrel and the handguard: the SBR has an 8 inch barrel and a 7.94 inch handguard. The Shorty has the lengths of 10.5/9.75 inches respectively. The youngest one, the Infidel: 13.7/15 inches. The barrel ends with a silencer that slightly protrudes from the handguard.
Last Friday at Taiwangun we took a look at both of the new versions.
The 7.94 SBR
The Infidel
The replicas are still finely made assembled, the was the case with the first version. They still make a very good impression. License markings look particularly good.
The new replicas will soon appear in Taiwangun's offer. The prices have not been set yet.
