MSH,
You are right that an inch or two of exposed gas tube is not really a big deal from a durability point of view. Before I got the long free float rail from Art, I was using a Noveske rail and the gas system hung out about an inch. To me it just looks funny and I did not like it. So when Art started offering the longer tube in late 2009, I bought one. If I'm going to have a rifle with around $2k invested I want it to function right and look good. I just think the option to cover the gas system should be available to those that want it. I suggest that you drop Art an e-mail and set up a call. He makes all of the Noveske rails and my guess is that he would be willing to work a deal with you. If you have something cooking for the longer run fine but with Art you can be offering the long rail in just a couple of weeks.
It's just a suggestion. I would like to see your barrel service take off and I think this might help. I recognize that I don't know all the details of your business since I'm just one customer.
But you asked.
