Yes, you can use a standard FSB. I actually have the "taller" post in my Varminter (I have/had a BUIS system on it) to use with an ARMS 40. I have bushmaster's unit that gunnut03 pointed out.
I don't know much about trying to set screw a pinned FSB though, I guess it might work....
Here's the deal, there are two different kinds of FSB (AFAIK) pinned and set screwed. Basically, the only FSB that come pinned are those that are on the barrels from the factory (most standard FSB) as Bravo pointed out, they come with the barrel for a reason. However, all the aftermarket FSB (like the railed gas blocks, or flip up ones) have set screws along the bottom of the base. The rumor is that they are much less durable (shift or or twist from impact) in combat situations. However, I've talked with a few qualified sources, and they assured me that when installed correctly (dimples and loctite), they are very durable.
This is what I meant by using a set screw setup. Maybe there IS a standard "F" FSB that uses set screws, I'm not for sure. But there certainly are other options.
