I have been thinking on getting a Bushy ORC to set up for coyotes out to 200 yards max ( probably more like 100 or less) and was thinking if I purchased the ORC model is there milled gas block low enough that I could run a midlength free float rail over the top of it or would I have to get a low pro gas block from somewhere?
I would be kinda setting it up for tactical use to practice with nothing to seriouse though. I just want my rail's ahead of the gas block to help with form and grip when using my MagPul Grip. Thanks for the help.

The ORC gas block is just a cut-down FSB; while I don't have dimensions it looks like it ought to fit under a FF rail.

Thats kinda what I thought too.. I have a midwest FF rail on a bushy with the regular front sight and the way it looks it seems it would clear it.. I think I just have to remove it so I can get the handguard cap off so it wont be in the way....

get a YHM lowpro gas block, they only run about $22 and it will look a lot better and you wont have to worry about it.
