This may be a 6 of one, half dozen kind of question but figured I'd ask. Is there any appreciable difference between these two gas blocks other than price and the emblem printed/stamped on them? I've been using the BCM version so far and they are a stellar product from a machining, operation and installation standpoint, but saw the Noveske one and wondered about it since their provided info doesn't give identical corresponding info to make an internet comparison. Just curious if anyone has seen/used both that might be able to point out a difference or confirm they are much the same. Thanks.
