Does anyone know if the 11 inch Larue handguard will cover a chopped down FSB on a midlength gas system?

Thanks!

The top two are mid-length gas blocks, the bottom is a carbine-length.



ETA: You can "chop" A FSB, but seems like a lot of work when you can get an LT low-profile bas block, and save your current one for future projects.

I appreciate your response Mfingar but I recently had a low-pro gas block work loose from a "dimpled" application and I would like to use the chop down method on this current build. I put quotes around dimpled because after inspection I realized that the dimpling was not as good as I would have done myself.

That said, using my tape measure and one of my Larue 9 inch handguards on a middy upper it appears that the 11 incher would cover the chopped down FSB. Can anyone confirm this entirely?


Thanks again!!
