We miss you, AC.
We miss you, ToddG.
Not for nothing... But if my options were 11.5" with 9" rail or a 12.5" with an 11" rail, I'd opt for the 1" increase in OAL and get the 2" of hand real estate for free. I'm 6', so that's factored in, but I do like the look better as well.
I agree with the longer rail options, but lets remember the OP of this thread said she is about 5 feet tall. I am imagining her arms are a little shorter than ours.

Grab an Aimpoint T1/H1 2 or 4 MOA of your choice in the mount of your choice, a light, sling, and VFG/AFG/hand-stop(s) if you want, and rock and roll.
I would take Noveske's BCG over anyone else's. They tune their rifles VERY well as a system, and take things into account that many people don't even think about. If you buy a Noveske, it will run, and run well. No guesswork or trouble-shooting on your part---it will flat work. Period. If for some reason it doesnt---because human beings work at Noveske, it WILL be made to where it is stone cold reliable.
This weapon will run 100% correctly suppressed or not. It is correctly gassed for suppressed, unsuppressed, and gas can be turned "off" if you want to do that for whatever reason. Flip of the selector on the gasblock, no allen wrenches or tweaking, just solid, pre-set, thoroughly specific and accurately metered gas-settings for the job at hand.
About that BCG...

This all is who were interested in competing. You can bet that at LEAST LWRC (and yes, they did compete) had the latest and greatest crap sprayed/baked/filmed onto their submission and that it came with 3 ports, a dozen axillary springs, a spare tire and a box of polyeurethane hypoallergenic condoms to contain its greatness. It still wasn't as good as the regular 'ol mil-spec BCG, apparently.

Breadman, I appreciate your words. I have no qualms about asking questions and learning. I appreciate everyone's opinion and advice.
I love to learn and think it's valuable to listen to those more experienced or have "been down that road before".
It's not bad to admit that you don't know things...we all start as novices and learn. I'd rather ask for help and advice and do things with the fewest amount of errors the first time...and re ask and re question and maybe bug people and save time & money in doing things right
While people may have differing views, I consider what everyone says, know what will work for me after I research it and test it out on my own....if a suggestion doesn't work, it's another insight that's learned.
Some people like Fords, some Chevy's, some like Coke, some Pepsi, some like Chocolate, some vanilla.....at the end of the day whatever fits ME the best, works for ME the best, and makes me the most accurate and quickest shooter that matters.
But that being said again, i truly really do thank everyone for their advice...it has helped me immensely!
update I got a BCM lower and my from 1 is sent off!

Now you have the time to look close and refine your options. As stated above what your most important use of the rifle is will determine the best configuration for you. Handle as many as you can, and since you are here in Vegas try to visit the SHOT show in January, a world of information and knowledge at your finger tips.
