im having a hard time getting a good answer to this.
i have a full size AR, right now it looks like your typical training M16. i want to put a rail on it, what size do i need? i want the rail to be free floating in the front and to end just before the front sight, i dont care if its not a true free float and needs to use the rear hand guard retaining ring, though i do want to change that ring, i dont like how it looks like a little skirt down there.
so, what size rail do i need?
who makes a good one for a reasonable price?
what do i replace my standard mini-skirt looking hand guard retainer with?
how do i take of the triangular retainer in the front at the front sight?
