I'm gonna order a Centurion for my LMT 16" upper.Either a 10" or 12".Any big reasons to go with one size over the other?

If your not too worried about weight i would go with the 12" if you dont use the extra 2 inches so be it but if you need it and is not there you S.O.L. The saying goes better to have it and not need it then to need it and not have it

IMO, if you're going to ditch the factory front sight, might as well put a long rail on the gun to increase sight radius. Otherwise just install a factory length rail for your gas system & use the rigid A2 sight.

They have pictures on their web site. Just click on the rail you are looking at and the pictures are at the bottom of the page.
