Troy VTAC or other Options to fit a 10.5" w KX3?

[Sniper1*]

Currently I am running a Surefire Quad rail (carbine Length) on my 10.5" SBR Bushmaster. I am wanting to switch to a more slimline and longer forearm so I can get a little longer reach with my support hand. I still have the factory front sight installed, but plan on removing it by either cutting it down or replacing it with a low pro gas block.

I also am running the KX3 (pig) muzzle device. I would like to keep it for my CQB purposes.

I am looking for a forearm that free floats, will extend over the Pig, which means I would need about 1 1/2+" of inside diameter on the forearm.

Gonna try to stay away from the Quad Rails if possible!

Any suggestions from the people that know what will fit?

Thanks in advance,

I have a Pig and a Troy TRX. My 9" barrel is threaded 5/8x24 and pig is 1/2x28, so I can't thread it on, but just putting it up against the barrel, it looks like it's a no-go. If my barrel were perfectly centered within the handguard, the pig would probably barely fit, but the barrel sits slightly below center.
