I vote for BCM. Lighter and chrome-lined.

Figured 8.5" was close enough to 9"

Only reason I'd say BCM is because of the full auto requirement and the chrome lining.

Otherwise... a better comparison to the BCM barrel is the lighter profile 8.3" BA Hanson.  Lining aside, I think it's a nicer barrel with the pinned gas block.   The gas port size just seems to work a hair better all around.

Don't be surprised if you need a relief cut on the back of your can mount for the BA barrels, though.

Don't know if they've updated the Hanson yet, but the last two BA modern series barrels I've purchased were relief cut behind the barrel threads in addition to being 5R rifled.

I have BCM, shot it unsuppressed for a while waiting for can stamp and now stays suppressed for SHTF/HD. Shoot it often and has always performed as expected.
