Assuming you're talking about the original ARMS 45M vs 45C, the main difference is that to install the M model you have to remove the delta ring. The C model fits with the delta ring in place. Here's pics of my 45M:   On the C model, there is an opening and clearance for the delta ring. I don't think there is any real advantage to the M model - I bought mine because I got it at a really good price and would have bought a C type if one had been available instead. The M version does "look" better though. |

The 58MOD will work with the 16" barrel. I had one on my 14.5" barrel and it looked pretty nice. If I can find a picture I will email it to you.

The 58MOD requires the removal of the delta ring and the forward handguard cap so it's slightly more time consuming to prep the upper for the S.I.R. ....Installation is 5 minutes and change like all of the S.I.R.s Here's a photo of a #58M-MOD on my 14.5" stag upper with PRI flip up front sight.  And here's another one on my 14.5" bushmaster upper with a fixed FSB:  Hope that helps It's my favorite of the available S.I.R. systems. |

BTW......removing the forward handguard cap even on FF handguards that don't require it is good because it allows greater airflow. I remove them from all of my AR's. If it's un-necessary....ditch it ;)
