How long are carbine handguards that have MID LENGTH gas systems?

Thanks.

Mid-length handguards are 9"

Carbine-length are 7"

Not really sure what you are asking.

You can run a mid-length handguard on a carbine, if you install a low-profile gas block.

Running a carbine-length handguard on a middy will look funny and expose some of your gas tube.

Yep, that's what I did and it looks stupid, ended up putting on a 9" now looks right!
