How long is the midlength handguard?  I would like to replace with a rail system, for example the Larue 9.0.  Does the number correlate to length?

Thanks!

Hemi, yes the "9.0" is in correlation to the length of the forearm, which is the length of a middy'.

Carbine = 7.0
Midlength = 9.0
Rifle = 12.0

These all sit in place of standard handguards behind a standard FSB.

A 10.0 would cover a short gas blocked midlength

An 11.0 would cover a full length gas blocked middy

A 9.0 covers a full length gas blocked carbine

And so on.
