Serious problem here...

[DelFuego]

There may be a serious problem going on here on this forum. At what point do some of the mods on our 15-22s cross over into the zone? Is it really necessary to mount something on every inch of our quad rails? Is there something pushing us into this zone? Could it be some mental deficiency that could be cured by taking the right vitamins? Did we drink too much beer, or not enough? I am deeply worried for all of us here...why is my head throbbing right now?

I happens in every sport. My 1911s are "single stackers," and that was expensive enough. Yikes, you should see some of the custom Harleys that rattle and clank into the bike parking lot.

Thousands spent on chrome, nothing on the engine. (And you should see the nuts wearing "SOA" colors...)

Hangers-on are part of life. You ever see a 300 pound couch potato wearing a football jersey? He's lucky he can pick up a donut, much less a fumble.

They want to be part of the sport or hobby. They just don't know how. This is where mentoring comes in. It helped me in life, and I think we now have to pay it forward.

Thats why they have quad rails, so that they can be filled with thingies. Same with closets, the bigger the closet, the more clothes wifey can manage to stuff in it. Which is more impressive, a naked quad rail, or one that has neat tactical cool thingies hanging all over it? Mind you this is on a .22 RF.

If you have 2 or more accessories on your quadrail, YOU MIGHT BE A REDNECK!!!!!!!!! Jeff Foxworthy

Breath deep,now take another,one more time and let it out slowly....

This happens once you touch or smell Melinite or Polymer on an M&P of any model or style. Sorry to say,but it IS incurable. It will never go away.
There is always something new to try. Too much "stuff" on your AR just triggers the impulse to buy another AR so you can add more "stuff". The sent from cleaning your AR (or handguns),also triggers the impulse for more and better. In short...you're screwed. Hello,I'm "Max" and I'm an M&P-oholic. It all started.............

It is a pernicious and insidious disease, principally affecting those with more money than common sense.

I think that the severity of the manifestation is inversely proportional to the amount of actual shooting experience the patient has - newbys will buy anything!

This problem is what makes me proud to be American. Where we spend our own money to do whatever we want to our firearms, like we do our hot rods, houses and Harleys.

Come on slacker, there's still room on that smoke stick for more stuff.

Some of us, with actual real world experience on the battlefield, just like to have something to remind us of those times. Mine's set up pretty much the way I carried in Iraq.

My oldest grandson (age 15) is getting one for his birthday, the end of December. I have no doubt David will dress his out just like the M4 his dad carried in Iraq, too.

BTW, my youngest grandson (age 8) is getting one for Christmas, as well.

To each their own. Deal with it.

Every purchase, no matter how stupid you think, supports a growing industry in America. The gun sub-culture must remain strong.

 

[Majorlk]

Geez, guys, this was a light hearted discussion. Let's not get too overwrought about it.

 

[yugowego]

Because I Can! My lil 15-22 turned into a $2,000+ plinker quick... My Colt LE6920 is pushing $4,000... why you ask... Im addicted to the buy it now button!...

 

[Majorlk]

Oh, man, you are SO addicted!!!

Did you know Paypal has a spending limit... It is $10,000, after you hit that you have to link your checking account to your paypal account...before that i just had my debit card linked... Wife was extremely mad when she got that email!

 

[Roadtrash]

Me, I'm simple and don't have anything that I don't use. But I'm glad people are into that kind of stuff it keeps the gun world hopping and growing.

The only things on my rails are a BUIS and rail covers. Light weight, simple and sleek. However, I'll admit that I have a drawer full of junk that was once mounted. After a while, the tacticool wears off and you realize that this platform can stand on its own.
