[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 827065, member: 229"] A lot of it depends on your free-float hand-guards' clearance and the size of the gas-block you plan on using. I had some clearance problems with the side-ways clamp-style screws in my VLTOR Gas block when putting a smaller free-float (DD Lite) on, so I had to switch out the screws for some I found at Ace Hardware (I actually got the idea from one of 264Magnum's posts about how he had just replaced some of the screws in his DD rail for a different reason). Here's a set of Extended (10") rails over a mid-length system - should look similar to mid-rails over a carbine system (I went with this particular gas-block partly because the VLTOR logo is cool-looking and is on the front of the gas-block - and with this setup, it sticks ever-so-slightly out the front of the handguards): [b][Broken External Image][/b] [b][Broken External Image][/b] [b][Broken External Image][/b] [b][Broken External Image][/b] [/QUOTE]
