THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT Are there any out there? I told him his options were CMMG 18" upper cut down CMMG 16" upper and figure how to move the FSB out further. Am I missing anything? Thanks |

He could put a 13" free float hand guard and a flip up front sight. Some have the flip up built in.

Just get one of those clamp on fsb's and make your own. Most centerfire dissies have faux gas block fsb at rifle length anyway.

Or you could get a 20" upper and cut the barrel down, thread and recrown it.

The CMMG 18" goverment profile upper has a rifle-length handguard. The barrels in their .22lr uppers are set back about 1.5", so the upper at 16.5" sticking out from the receiver, is already pretty close to the length of a dissipator. I don't think he would have to cut it down at all.
