The Noveske N4 Gen 4 Shorty Micro-Switchblock Pistol is an elite, suppressor-optimized semi-automatic firearm chambered in 5.56mm NATO and engineered on premium 4th Generation billet 7075-T6 aluminum matching receivers. It features a compact 10.5-inch 416R stainless steel match-grade barrel with a 1:7 twist rate, equipped with Noveske's innovative front-accessible Micro-Switchblock gas regulator. This system gives shooters instant toggle access to three distinct gas settings (Unsuppressed, OFF, or Suppressed) via a dedicated port cutout in the 9.75-inch NSR M-LOK free-floating handguard. Finished in a rugged Bazooka Green Cerakote, this "braceless" configuration drops the traditional stock or brace for a bare, impact-extruded 6-position receiver extension, shipping factory-loaded with premium steel Magpul MBUS Pro iron sights, a Pig Pen flash hider, a Noveske Love Handle ambidextrous charging handle, fully ambidextrous receiver controls, and a crisp Noveske Single Stage (NSS) trigger.
