Their barrels come with a good low profile, pinned, gas block and gas tube. Most Krieger barrels run $450 without, while others run less. I've been quoted $50 to bead blast a barrel, which Noveske already includes, the VLTOR gas block runs $50 and having someone pin it runs $35 or so.

It all equals out as long as you get what you want. And please don't base Noveske's accuracy reputation on my shooting.
