| Can I mount a rifle free float tube on a mid length 16 barrel? I know I have to use a low profile gas tube , but thewn I could mount a flip up front sight. I want to use an aim point or similiar and I doun't like the standand front sight sticking up. |

Yes. Depending on the rail, it can end up feeling muzzle heavy. And it's a low profile gas block that you want. Measure where the gas block will be on the barrel and get a rail that's is long enough to cover it. Check the inside diameter of the rail to make sure it will fit over the gas block. |

I'd go with this low-profile gas block because it meets ALL of your criteria and it'll be a great value (not to mention that it just looks damn good to-boot! http://yhm.net/images/YHM-9394-H.jpg You can choose from several options... with/without bottom rail, bayo mount, hooded vs std., sling (or not).... lots of variations on this! I got mine at BrightFlashlights.com (here on this sight) Jim |
