WAS kit is good, no doubt. I use a fair few bits myself, BUT you are in the league's of the big boys price wise and you can pick up eagle industries, HSGI, emdom and tactical tailor kit for similar prices which are arguably slightly better quality. 

https://www.ar15.com/forums/armory/M16A3__is_it_a_flat_top_like_the_A4_/23-271767/ I stand corrected, it appears AR15 A3's from colt are flat top.  M16A3's appear to be a very rare beast indeed.

Note i said over priced not over paid ?

Anybody know what size you need for a 14.5" barrelled armalite split into upper/ lower?

What he said

Ferro danger pouch attached to the bottom of the carrier, covers the wobbly bits for me.  Problem is, your plate carrier is actually covering the bits it should and is designed to cover Heart, lungs, liver etc.  You may be better off with a more generic armour type, like an osprey or IBA etc. ...

Looks like an IMI or fobus ROTO mount might work. Is it a central allen bolt and 2 textured circles?

Your other option is to fit a section of rail to your existing handguard, or to use an moe handguard or similar with rails that bolt on...
