The pictured gun in that link has a lot longer than a 20" barrel. I'd guess its 24".
I'm not sure what the rules are for service rifle competition, but I would look into it before buying parts if you want to be able to compete.
A free float tube takes the sling out of the equation - it is also probably not allowed for service rifle competition.
I think you will probably end up with a better rifle and at a better price if you buy all the parts separate. There really aren't that many parts to an AR....

Just my two cents
