You need a 7" rail...unless your Spikes rifle is a midlength in which case, you need a 9" rail.

OP post a link to your specific rifle you are ordering so we can be sure, but I am going with no because you stated complete rifle, and are asking about a pistol lenght gas system handguard.

Now, your going to put this on your rifle?
I think you'd be better off with the EZ CAR Rail, just swap out your carbine lengh handguards

The Lite rail requires you to remove the barrel for installation. So does the Omega X. The Omega rail is a 2-piece drop in free float. The EZ CAR is a 2-piece drop in non free float.
The barrel legnth, gas system, and gas block/FSB type of your rifle will determine what size and style rail you can use. |

i was looking at the EZ CAR Rail 7.0, Carbine

This is the 4.0" on my 9mm:
  But my 9mm has a 5" barrel. I would think anything with a barrel much longer than 7-8" will look like shit with a rail this short. |

I agree, if the photo doesn't educate you enough, maybe you should think twice about owning a firearm.
