I am ordering a Carbon Fiber hand guard from Hiperform for my midlength barrel I just got from ArmaLite. How much longer than carbine length is the gas port/gas block out towards the end? How much shorter from full length? How long are standard carbine handguards? How long are the mid length handguards? |

Thanks fellas. Gunz: That is where I'm getting my hand guard from and Rod is the guy I'm talking to. He asked me what type of lower I was using but that shouldn't matter. It is an Aramlite "mid length" (16") barrel going on a RRA flat top receiver. The demension he asked me for was the distance from the front of the receiver to the back of the site base. As I don't have the receiver yet, I measured from the edge of the flange on the barrel extension that abuts the front of the receiver, to the back of the site base and I get 8 7/8". Is that 2" longer than regular carbine hand guards or his carbon fiber hand guard for carbines? |
