you got to get a "ShooWrench" for the barrel nut that holds the rail and barrel on, but as far as changing the rail, I don't think that there is anyone making a different model, the way the the barrel is attached, it uses the rail to pin the barrel to the upper, upper-barrel-rail-barrel nut.

Tacticool22 makes a free float adapter that you can use to replace the OEM barrel nut. It lets you use a normal free float handguard. You can also get a delta ring and clamp-on gas block so you can use a carbine handguard or drop-in quad rail. There are several threads about the conversion.

Brett248Vista has some great videos
Here is one YouTube - How to convert your 15-22 into an M4 Carbine.
I have a wrench end (hobby) and the full length with urethane bushing (Pro)
