Basically, I have a 16" carbine with a carbine length free float hand guard. I want to remove that and put on a mid-length Magpul MOE hand guard. Currently I plan on keeping the carbine gas system and using a low profile block, and a clamp on front sight post. My question is: How will/ does the hand guard cap work being that it will now be seperate from the gas system? I mean, will it simply be stuck between the hand guard and the sight post?

Yes, but when the hand guard isnt installed, the hand guard cap will slide between your gas block and clamp on block. |

Something that loose on a rifle just doesn't seem natural, had to ask. Thank you for the reply. |
