i'm gonna guess 14.5, hard to tell with the spr/m4 on the gun

That's what was tricking me too, I was hoping a DD or AAC fan would see it and know exactly, just off the top of their head.

I would say 95% it is a 16inch barrel, based on this picture of my 16inch middy with a 9inch rail and spr/m4 can.

I could be totally wrong but it looks to me like a 16" with a AAC SPR/M4. May Jason from AAC will respond in this thread.

9.0 DD rail? Any chance that's actually a 762SD rather than the SPR/M4? I don't see the lever for the 51T mount in the DD pic...

Thanks guys. So now the pressing question becomes, can you use a 12.5" barrel with a 12.0 DD rail and an M4-2000?

that's a 10" rail

Are you saying the rail in the picture is 10"?

yea looking more and more like a 16" middy. The rail is definately a 12" rail when you look at the gas tube and see how far it goes further than the block

Nope don't believe so. I believe the rail will be covering up the locking lug on the FH / adapter. as seen here with this 11 inch rail and 11.5 inch barrel.

yeah, looks like a 10".
counting the holes in the upper part of the rail, it seems to be 3 holes longer than my 9" DD lite rail and there are 2 1/2 holes to an inch of rail.
there are 19 holes in a 9" lite rail and there seems to be 21-22 holes in the rail pictured


Are you saying the rail in the picture is 10"?

plus the guy would have to have a freakin huge hand to take up half of a 12" rail lol

They are, and its a 12" rail with 16" midlength barrel. I can say that with more certainty than most.

that's cool, i think i trust your judgement on these things a little better than my own so if you say it's 12" that's good enough for me:)

I think what Stick is trying to say is that he is the one in the pic or he took the pic.

Sorry to hi-jack but,
Is there a reason the micro is on the left side, being he is right handed?
Seems easier to manipulate if it's on the strong side.
