WestKentucky, what you want is similar to what is called a Kino.

I don't like rails, and am planning to do an A2 upper, keeping the weight around 6-6.5lbs. That anderson barrel you posted looks like its .750 to the end, which would work great, I have never seen one without a drop after the gas port area, thanksWhy not just buy a carbine length gas system barrel and use a FF forend to which you can mount a sight? Or same with a constant size barrel to which you can drill a slight recess and setscrew attach the a2 style front sight tower (with locktite)?

Better!!Now that is slick. Wonder how it would look with a 3-prong flash hider on there.
If I run cheap ammo in my rifle gas system it will sometimes short stroke. But with good 556 ammo it runs great. Most trouble is when you go with a collapsible stock with a rifle gas system. If I remember right, you need to open the gas port to .011.I don't have a dissipator. One of the reasons is that I've read that tuning the gas can be difficult (on a true dissy). Have any of you had reliability issues regarding getting enough gas? Did you need to increase the gas port size?
