Quoted: I need to decide on a CAR or Mid length rail for my RRA A4 upper
Can anyone spot me some pics of the differences of the 2 sizes maybe? Without the crazy handrails too, just the basic ones, would be great. I have big hands so I'm thinking I might go with Mid.
I do like the smaller, more compact and tactical look of the Car guards though.

I have several of both....in my personal opinion I like the Mid-Length gas system more for several reasons.
1) Longer sight radius (always a good thing, especially if irons are going to be your primary sighting system)
2) Longer handguards give more real estate, weather you are using standard handguard or a rail system. If you have large hand or longer arms you will appriciate the longer handguard of a mid-length.
3) Mid-Length gas system is a little smoother than a carbine gas system. Not by a great margin, but if you fire them side by side you will be able to tell a difference.
I have 7 carbines, 3 of them are Mid-Lengths, and 4 of them are M4's.....If I could I would change all of them over to Mid-Lengths.
Just my 2 pesos
