I think the Noveske barrel is a pretty good deal, money wise. When you factor in the lo-pro gas block ($40-$50) and the
gas tube ($10-$15) Then you have to factor in the price of having the gas block PINNED ($30-$40) included on Noveske.
When you do that.....the barrel is not much more, if ANY, than a stripped barrel from just about anyone that has a good
reputation. When you factor in the PAC NOR blank and the poly rifling.....the Noveske is hard to beat. Please be
aware than my opinion is completely biased.
