You'll lose more accuracy having a chrome bbl(negligible) than you will distorting barrel harmonics by torquing the forward grip.

If anything, a quad rail will be more aesthetically pleasing to the eye than a handguard mounted rail. And offer more real estate for useless items that will just imbalance your carbine

If you do decide to pursue a quad rail, make sure you get a 2 piece one so you won't have to remove the front sight to install it.
I've shot off a bench with a 'V' rest for the front. I was zero'ing my AR. I rested it on my freefloat handguards. Without realizing it my rifle fell and was resting on the barrel and the POI shifted. Making it a long day of zero'ing as opposed to a quick deal.

I shoot in 3 gun competitions, and have to rest my rifle on different items, walls, barrels, midgets, etc. I dont want the poi to shift, so I went free float.
