So it looks like 15 7/16" or 15 1/2" long in a straight line. Yay or nay?

It's good, brother.   :thumbup:

 

You had your info right before - I was using your info to show the other guy that you were talking about rifle, and he was recommending (or talking about) midlength.  Just wanted him to see what you were talking about.

Don't question you - question what the "advertisers" sold you.  12" isn't even a gas tube, unless it's a custom one from White Oak Armament, and you ordered it specifically. 

So it arrived today and it measures about 121/8, see below.

Its listed as a 308 gas tube mid length

Working on my build and time to install the gas block and tube. Put everything in place tried the charging handle and bcg and Houston we have a problem!!!

BCG won’t go into battery and long story short pulled the gas block and tube, bcg locked right up. 
 

My conclusion the 121/8 gas tube is to long for my set up probably need an 11.75 AR15 gas tube.

I wouldn't sweat that to much.. if the bcg works go with it. It might make some noise but doubt you will hear it under fire. I have made a slight bend in a gas tube before but that was a "if I fuckit up oh well, buy another" . The fix was perfect. (458 socm build)
