it'll fit...
14.5" barrel & carbine gas
16" barrel & mid-length gas
20" and rifle gas
Here's an example of the midlength 16" combo with the okc3s that replaced the m7 for the marines I found in some halloween candy...

Thanks RJ, I was placing a CMP order and was going to get one but since it won't fit I won't bother. I have been meaning for years to get a 20'' AR15, much like the M16A1 or A2 (can't remember) like I was issued in the Army in the mid 80s. Guess I'll have to wait till I leave this state now. Now if a HB that's legal to MD has the bayo lug and works then I'm gtg and I'll get one.
Or I guess I could get a repo for my M4 but I don't really want a repo.
That is a mid length it is not the same . It will not fit on a carbine length .
Thanks, but no thanks on the adapter.
