OK, so I'm feeling a little like an old, fat version of Rambo.
I'm still an AR newb....
I got my first AR, and have added: Quad picatinny rail hand guard, New scope, night light, vertical grip, bi-pod, single point sling.
What am I missing as far as AR accessories?
I think I'm addicted to buying accessories.
I've been picking up a few varieties of ammo to try.
Just call me................................................. DANBO!

Grenade launcher....................... :tup:

The only accessory you will need! Crye 12g revolver bullpup.

Shoulder thing that goes up. It's a must have. It's like racking a pump shotgun. It makes the bad guys wet themselves at the mere sight of it - well ignorant libs, anyway.

100 round mag + at least 4000 rounds of ammo. :tup:

HO------ LEE---------- CRAP!!!!!
I think I need one.

:yeah: :drool:

Keep your Gun simple. If it is a defensive gun, then all you need is a gun light and maybe a vertical grip if you want. Keep it light, and clean. All I would run is an optic and a flashlight. Everything else is just for show.

Cup holder??

Battery release level

The best accessory I know is also about the cheapest--a Winter Trigger Guard. Good for those cold days when you have gloves on. Never liked those straight trigger guards. That's why they can be hinged out of the way... :twocents:

I make the following upgrades to all my ar's
best trigger group I can find
bad lever
ambi mag drop
ambi safety
quick release takedown pins (yhm make a good set)
oversized mag release button
I am also a big fan of the JP enterprises silent recoil buffer.

none of these are accessories I suppose, more of upgrades. For me personally I agree with the above post that with a rifle less stuff on it is better.
about the only true accessories I add is a level bubble that mount on the rail for my longer range ar's (us optics makes a nice one), and a ver. front grip. If you want to use a bipod then having a bipod adaptor for a lower rail is nice to have.

Technically they are called Slidefire Stocks, and a friend tested one of them and a full auto AR, and the Slidefire equipped AR was actually a tiny bit faster than the full auto.
That being said, they are a fad. A local gun shop bought 3 of them, sold 2 real fast, and the third one hung around for more than a year before it sold. I can burn up ammo fast enough with a semi-auto, so I never got one. None of the 5 ARs I own have one. :twocents:

The slide fires are fun but expensive to feed.

Silencers are great fun! If they ever knock off that $200 Tax Stamp BS I might get one. :tup:
