Does anyone know if you could put a Mini-14 handguard on a 10/22 with a B-Tm stock? Would doing so require a Mini-14 gas block? If so, could you mount a Mini-14 gas block on the front of a B-Tm stock?
I've got a "stainless" 10/22 I'm going to SBR and put into a B-Tm stock with a binary trigger. I'd love to complete the A-Team look with a Mini-14 handguard.

An actual Mini-14 handguard is to wide for a 10/22 and will look out of place on the narrower 10/22.
I actually built what you are asking about many years ago using a cut down and modded butler creek folder, a modded polymer 10/22 hand guard heat shield, and an AC556 gas block.
I am actually in the process of building another stainless SBR host in an almost identical setup but using a Samson B-Team folder, a Ruger (mini-14 centric) flash hider, no optic but a tech sites 10/22 rear sight. I have all the parts and started on it a month back or so but just have not had the free time to finish it.
This new stainless B-Team folder host will be the "mini me" to my AC556K.
