    Guys,
    this should be easy.
    1. What are the stupidest AR15 accessories that you have seen advertised?

    2. Try and say 1 nice thing about it, just try 1 time. Sarcasm required.

    Positive: if you have meet one if your CoD friends in real life, they will know you are a real operator.

    In my opinion most all of them are stupid. I am use to a plain jane AR. Iron sights right out of the box. Keeps the rifle as light as possible. I prefer optics on bolt guns.

    Rail to Redfield iron sight mount adapters that don't center the sight over the boreline. Ever since JP stopped selling theirs, I think this describes every single one on the market.

    2. Try and say 1 nice thing about it, just try 1 time. Sarcasm required.
    Trying to find a way to compensate via an offset-mount front sight opens up an infinite world of fun for people who prefer to tinker rather than shoot.

    well this is probably off topic because it's not a single accessory but rifles that look like this *(and I see them)
    What is that rearmost accessory mounted to the bottom of the handguard? It looks like a hand-stop such as would be used in high power competition, except it's rather small for that and (if that's what it is) it's mounted backwards.

    not sure, that photo is right off the leapers (utg) website. I noticed it last weekend while detailing some handguard products.

    Rail adaptors for cameras intended to help people relive and analyze their performance but used like this:

    Irredeemable narcissists can point the camera at themselves (see pic) and take an infinite number of identical selfies while gaining absolutely no insight into how they're shooting.

    This is a waste of 10 minutes, so don't bother with it all. Start at 5:20 and go at least a minute and a half; you really need to see the tactical toilet paper dispenser.

    (Yes, I know it's airsoft. It's still funny.)

    I hate to ask this, but where is that adapter available?
    There are actually a huge number of rail mounts for cameras on the market. That particular one is here: Digital Camera Picatinny Rail Mount | Strikemark though I imagine there are about 500 different Chinese knock-offs and figuring out which was the first or which is the best is a task I'm not willing to undertake.

    If you want to go nuts with cameras on your rifle, feel free:

    Gotta be fake. No way anyone owns that. They have a ubr magpul stock, eotech, and 1991 VHS camera
    He pulled out the old mount and camera and put it on his current rifle for the picture. Visit the credited link and the Strikemark web site and reconsider.
