Hey yall. I'm looking at the Spikes rail and It is attractive to me because of price, and because I think it may fit over the gas block on my gun cause the BAR looks pretty gaping if you catch my drift, just from the looks of it I think it will work but I'm not entirely positive. I have the Bushmaster ORC with gas block as shown below. Anyone have a clue?

I know I will lave to lose the sling loop and bayonet lug and that might be a pain but other than that, what do you think?

Grind off the bayo lug and sling ears and it will fit.

Heck it will probably fit without grinding them off
The diameter of the BAR is HUGE

Tried Primary Arms. They've been out. I'll probably go with LaRue now. Any idea what I'll have to do to get the gas block to clear the LaRue rail??

You will have to remove the gas block since the Larue uses a different barrel nut.  Then cut off the bayo lug, sling swivel and remove the handguard cap and you should be good to go.

If your looking for the BAR though why not just go directly through Spikes?

Looks to be in stock:
