Like i edited in, your judgement in warranted. I'm not going to parade in here and act like i know everything about this platform like most kids these days would do. I'm here for cold hard information from real people. I appreciate the help folks.

To much to keep track of really.

 

Aint that the truth.

 

Anything. Pull of the FSB if you want. Replace with a low profile gas block, run and flip BUIS you like, any length rail.

Here are some examples

 

i can't build computers. No knowledge of that either.

 

+1. A good mantra for all throughout life's journey grasshopper.

 

it was a build of on sale parts. stripped upper and parts from PSA. Barrel from Cobra tactical systems along with the handguard. PSA flip up sights. Primary Arms micro RDS. KAK muzzle brake.

 

It's a carbine gas system. You have many options in which you'll need to decide if you want to get rid of the triangle front sight and go with flipups or not. If not you can get a drop in carbine or midlength rail that will have the cutout for the front sight. If you do want to go with it you will need a new low pro gas block to get rid of the front triangle sight, and then you can run whatever length rail you'd like up to the end of the barrel.

 

A lot of people recommend just cutting down the factory gas block since it's already pinned and will give you the best fitment vs an aftermarket gas block that you have to set with set screws.

 

centurion arms makes a few rails that allow you to use that front sight. Daniel Defense as well. their omega x 2 piece is great for that.

 

And most solid/sturdy.

 

I'd like to go with a low profile gas block and a set of flip up sites but for now it seems like the best thing to so is just get a quad rail that fits the rifle AS IS

Thank you all for your help

 

There are some nice looking rails that will fit around the front sight.

Anybody tried out the Leupold vxr ? Looking at replacing my iron sights... Don't know if I should order a silencer or a new sight

 

If your in the market for iron sights take a peak at these:

A.R.M.S. - #40L-SP flip up rear sight

Samson quick flip folding front sight

That is what I am running and I love them. There are tons out there, but these are heavy duty. I'm not a fan of the plastic ones as I can be pretty rough on my weapon and breakage is always a concern. More so than the added weight, even though its negligible.

 

Post-deer season, back into lightweight configuration. 6 lbs 1 oz with no mag in it.

 

For those of you following the Sig Brace debacle. Fair warning, this link isn't fit for work, unless you are a Grunt or construction dude, in which case you will want to show it to your buddies.
