I ask another question which may make me seem like a total jerk... What is the difference between a 16" carbine and 16" mid length. I've done the google search but would like the ob's answer

Mid vs carbine refers to the length of the gas system, not the rails. You can put a carbine rail on a mid gas system and vise versa.
Middys are supposed to be more reliable for 16" barrels but I have not heard of any problems with guys running a carbine on a 16".
I have had a mixture of both and couldn't tell a single difference. I currently have a middy with a 16" barrel.
