Can a 16 in. step down barrel be changed to a mid length ? OR will the step down cause a problem. Sorry new to ARs.

You can not convert a weapon with a carbine length gas system to a Mid length gas system.  

Think about it, your going to have a open hole (Gas port) in the top of the barrel if you switched from Carbine to Mid Length.
