I have a carbine length AR with a low pro gas block.  Would a rifle length free float tube fit over that, and extend further down the barrel?  Just a thought that crossed my mind, not a serious one though.

Yes it will fit and look awesome.

Look at the countless pic threads... specifically the post 2012/13 pics where it became cool to have the longest forearm possible.

You have to measure the gas block and select a free float handguard that has a larger inside diameter, per its published specs.  Not all free float handguards are the same inside diameter and not all low pro gas blocks are the same maximum height.
