ar-15 rails
 

i am wanting to put a full length top rail on my AR. for example, like the ones that larue puts on theirs.

where the top rail is continuous from back to the front of the rail. anybody know what this style rail is called, or what kind of cost i would be looking at in order to make this modification to my AR?
my current set up is like this

Monolithic upper is what your talking about. Here is a link to one.

is there a way to convert a gun that doesnt have that style rail into the other style without having to buy a whole new upper?

You can purchase a stripped monolithic upper receiver and add the parts you already have to it. It ain't cheap, though.
