My apologies. I would edit the topic title but that option does not seem to be taking affect. I changed it but it still shows up as 'Test'
I built this pistol (soon to be an SBR):
I used this barrel:

I prefer my AR's simple. I don't see that I have any need for railed forends or gadgets hanging on them. Not opposed, they are just not needed for me.
What I would like to do is build a matching upper for this gun in .300 Fireball. I would like to use the same front site(not pinned, uses set screws), CAR handguards and flat top upper.
My questions.
1) Will a pistol length gas block fit under stock CAR handguards?
2) Will the On/Off gas block I have seen posted (made by tp555) fit under stock CAR handguards. I don't mind cutting/grinding the guards to make it fit and have access to the button.
3) Can I do all of the above with the same contour on the barrel as Denny's 11 1/2" VCQB.
My plan is to only shoot subsonics through this upper while using the YHM Phantom that is patiently waiting for me to pick it up.
