Re: How Long of Rail? I measured my barrel when I posted and from the barrel end of the insert to the muzzle end of the gas block and it was ~13.8 inches. I read a few places that 13 inch rails (which tend to be larger than 13 inches) tend to cover the gas block. Since I don't have a...

Re: How Long of Rail? Thanks guys.

I would rather not figure out this for myself due to cost, but from what I have found and have had problems verifying... Will a 13" rail cover a rifle length gas block? Assuming it fits under it... Thank you
