Anyone with a m4 LE dedicated upper care to measure the diameter of the barrel after the front lightening cut. Main reason is to see if I can move the fsb to the rifle length position to mimic my dissipator build.

.750. You have to remember, the barrel is only sticking out 14.5" approximately. The FSB is also pinned.

ah so the 18"barrel upper is the way to go, forgot the barrel is set back into the upper, thanks shadowcop.

Yep, the 18" barrel already comes with rifle length hand guards. I know three guys that liked them so much, they bought a second.

It should be good to go next week. I was notified yesterday stainless bolts were out and due in next week.
