So i was wondering what is the longest quad rail that i can fit onto a 16in barrel? I want to reduce the visibility of the barrel as much as possible. I simply want to see just the muzzle break. What would you guys recommend?

What did you get? Was it lighter because you went with a polymer lower.

It was lighter because i went with an all new build! Left the quadrail off, and just had a platic magpul, got rid of the stock for an A2, and went iron sights for it. It was only like 9lbs, but the new one was around 5.5 give or take. I bought a bolt gun to run with optics.

Samson has a 15" handguard. It's pricey, but nice. It's what I've got on my 18" barreled 3-gun rifle. It's not a full quadrail, but it has minirails you can add anywhere you want the rail to go. Much easier on the hand if you're not using a vertical foregrip or an angled foregrip.

Actually the PSA is a closer to what i am looking for since i don't have a SS barrel. I do like the look of the first one too!! I was going add an aim point pro and a backup flip front sights with a micro low profile gas block. So right now it is down to those two! Thanks!

Here is a 12" quad rail on my 16" stainless barrel. It's just the cheap 40$ one I found on Amazon. I would like to have a full 15" rail but refuse to spend the money on it.
