I'm sure this has been asked a million times; and I've done plenty of searching but I'm still a little confused, and I need to get this right the first time as the saying goes, "measure twice, cut once"
I'm building a very short SBR; I'm using a Centurion Arms C4 carbine length rail, and want around an 8 inch barrel. I will be using a YHM Wraith suppressor, that is a Quick Detach from their Wraith Flash hider. So I need to make sure the rail will not obstruct or interfere with the flash hider as the suppressor will attach to it.
I have the rail in hand, and it measures 7 & 1/4 inches long.
The barrel is going to be cut down; so I can do any length I want.
Will an 8 barrel give enough clearance, or should I do 8 & 1/8 in or 8 & 1/4 in.
I would like there to be around an 1/8 - 1/4 inch gap between where the rail end and the back of the flash hider begins.......Does anyone how I can measure this out??
Anyone have any pictures of a similar set up would be appreciated.
Thank you for your help.
