Is it possible to put a different rail like a quad rail on the A4 varmint model or is this going to be a compatibility problem since it is a bull barrel?

Re: RRA Question
The rifle comes with a free float tube. What I am asking is there any other handguard options other than the tube style that will work on a bull barrel?

Re: RRA Question
No problems changing the rail to someting different, just remember that your free float tube is probably connected to the nut that holds your barrel on. So if you decide to change forends, it will probably entail removing the barrel nut or switching it out.

I will probably let a gunsmith do it because I really don't know anything about this type of rifle.

It is a very simple process. For about 75 bucks, you can get your reciever blocks. If you go to brownells website, you can watch there videos to work on AR's. They show a step by step. Very Simple. And there is many rails you can put on. Each tube will come with its own barrel nut. Just take off the gas block and tube, unbolt the tube and barrel nut, put on the new one, tork it down to 35-40 as long as you can see evenly through the keyhole for the gas tube in the upper reciever, then install tube or rail.
