That part would have been easy to figure out. Even the Russians got a knife on there somehow, without a hammer too.Don't forget how the distance from flash suppressor to front sight/bayonet lug relates to the bayonet.

Was just curious as to why it wasn't on the muzzle like the predecessors is all.
Not a knife.
What is the spirit of the bayonet?
TO KILL! TO KILL! TO KILL WITHOUT MERCY!
And to open your meals.Not a knife.

And cans, don't forget the cans.I always thought it was for opening your MRE's?
It's called a "Kino" or "Faux Dissipator" setup--most modern Dissy replicas do exactly that to avoid the reliability problems from reduced dwell-time that plagued the cut-down originals.Fixed the sight issue for ya.
Could one just install a FSB towards the muzzle of an AR and use a low profile gas block instead?

--Patrick Sweeney, Gunsmithing the AR-15: The Bench Manual, pp. 6-9"...[ I]t was meant to be built using standard parts as much as possible. For example, the roll pins that hold parts, and the springs that work those small parts, are normal items you can buy in bulk from a non-firearms manufacturer. Indeed, if you want roll pins, you can consult catalogs devoted to them in every size, material, diameter and surface finish you could want. And when you order them, your choices are by the box or the dead weight. Compare that to trying to buy a model-specific part, like the trigger pin on an M1 Garand, M14/M1A or Remington 742.

By spreading the base, making it less of a specialized process, the country would not be at the mercy of one plant being sidelined in an emergency. Remember, in the early 1950's, memories were still sharp concerning shortages faced in World War II. ... Having a distributed small arms production base was considered a good thing. Having it concentrated ... in one plant with very few suppliers was a bad thing and easily disrupted."

Only limit is clearance for your muzzle attachments and handguards of choice, and fitting the barrel's outside diameter.So on a 20" AR barel, if one wanted to they could put the front sight towards the muzzle?
Oh, only about the average American haaagh-screwel detainee... I refuse to call most of 'em "students" cuz they sure ain't LEARNIN' anything. Let's put it this way... if *I* can beat an AR parts-set into an operational firearm, ANYBODY can.Hey, who you calling a trained monkey lol?
