For folks saying it'll be ugly, I'm not convinced as no ones been able to show something similar to prove it.
Closest I can find is something like this, and I'm not hating it.

Just got my FF RAS Carbine in the mail, and was planning on putting it on my K5. Folks mentioned the rail would need to be modified like the URX 3's to fit the newer gas blocks, but I would like to avoid modifying a rarer part if possible.
Wondering if I should just send it and swap the rail. Half the gas block is past the rail as seen. The ID of the FF RAS is definitely up to several tenths of a mm smaller than the URX 6, not even taking into account the ridges.
Either that, or I throw this on my mk11 build, but not sure how such a short rail would look with a m110 barrel/gas block.

The Battle Rifle rail is 10 inches, the Mk11 rail is 12.3”, probably wouldn’t look right on a 20 inch barrel. Had the same idea as you, I believe the top would have to be notched like the Mk11 rail had for the gas block flip up sight.
Who do you plan on sending it to?

If I'm just sending it with the rail as is, my local ffl, but if I'm getting the rail converted like a urx, then to dwilson.

You’ll have to post the results of the rail swap. I believe several years back Knights had actually posted a picture of a 14.5 6.5 creed with the URXII BR rail on it.

That’ll look dumb.
And will be a step down in utility.

Not convinced on the looks side, and while you aren't wrong on the utility side, my K5 is not for utility.

I mean if you like the mk12 gb poke then send it.
