Will a bayonet fit on a 14.5" mid-length?

I'm interested in getting a mid-length BCM 14.5" upper with permanently attached muzzle device. I'm curious if a bayonet will fit onto this system. If so, would a bayonet still fit if I used the Battle Comp compensator on the end?

After looking at some of the pics, I think they've answered my first question. The bayonet won't fit the 14.5" mid-length.

Would a bayonet still fit a standard M4 with the Battle comp installed?

Not entirely sure, though Stickman's pictures on military times would lead me to believe yes.

Mr. Pokey will not fit on a 14.5 with a A2X or Yankee Hill flash hider, the muzzle devices are too short.

I have a Vietnam era M7 bayonet and a modern USMC OKC-3S bayonet, another 1/4 of an inch and the M7 bayonet would fit on either comfortably. The USMC bayonet is another story, there seems to be a slightly larger gap.
