With a whopping 4 feet of rail space.... I'm pretty sure you're right about people being predisposed to hang a lot of options on their 15-22. I doubt many folks purchased the rifle for the pleasure of adorning it with rail covers. Though, I do have some Larue clips on the way. (Thanks Maxicooper)

I don't understand what you mean: 'ESPECIALLY with the gun just being an average shooting 22 auto' ?

I agree, the 15-22 is just an average shooting 22 (maybe not even that good). But if the 15-22 isn't the ideal 22 to be "festooned with all kinds of junk", then what 22 rifle is? I mean... If I showed up at the range with my Savage bolt action outfitted with a bunch of lasers, red dots, flashlights and various junk I'd be laughed off the range...
