Okay so basically I'm building my first AR..going with a 14.5'' mid length gas with perm attached brake (I live in ban state anyways)..my main concern is that I ordered a midwest industries mid-length free float rail which measures around 9 inches. My main problem is will I be able to fit a railed gas block in front of MI hand guard? Since I live in a ban state I didn't order the barrel with the tradition front sight because it has the bayonet lug, so instead I was gonna buy a upper height gas block and stick a Troy folding sight on it...

I know I could go with a low profile block but it will be visible with my mid length hand guard and I think it would look stupid.
