I have this on my S&W 22A and it works pretty well
Scopes, Red Dot Scopes, Sightmark Multi - Reticle Reflex Sight, By Landmark at Sportsman's Guide

For my MP15-22 I am going with a little bit larger scope. I have one on my other .22 rifle and it works pretty well. It is clear, hold zero, does not cost an arm and a leg.

I am also putting a red not on a 45 degree mount

I was told that it might nod hold center being a 45 degree mount. I have it on my desk already so I will use and see.

BSA Red Dot 20mm Scope

mount
Yankee Hill Machine 3 Slot Angle Riser Assembly

The Bushnell was one of the ones I was looking at for my 22A. It got pretty good reviews.

I do not have first hand experience with any of the ones you have linked to so I can not say much about them.

that 45 degree mount will not work... use a 11 oclock mount they stay true to the centerline of the bore so the optic can be sighted in...

you may wanna look at a hammers t dot.. ive had may different optics on mine just playing around and so far its the best trade off ive found and at 50 bucks shipped its a deal
 
Everything you listed will work fine on 1 15-22... and so much about accessorizing is personal taste so if you like it that's all that matters. That said.... here's my 2 pennies.

1.Bushnell Trophy 1x28 Four Reticle Riflescope

Very good red dot.... but will need a separate riser. Not tacticool like many clones.

2.NC Star Ultra Compact 3-9 Illuminated Tactical Scope With Bullet Drop Compensator

Be a good idea to look through the scope first. Real short 3-9x optics often come with a fair amount of distortion around the edges.

3.NC Star Ultra Compact Green Laser With Mount And Pressure Pad

Good

4.AR-15 33mm Military T-Dot Reflex Package New

Never seen one. Something about that mount doesn't look quite right. Ever used a T reticle before ?

5.NC Star Mark lll Tactical Scope 2-7x32 Illuminated Reticle

Many Forum members have them. Built in mount too low. Will need separate riser.

6.Quick Detachable Throw Lever Foregrip

I have found that cheap throw levers are often a problem.

7.Sightmark Red Laser Designator

Will not work except indoors or when dark.

I know its alot to look at and compare but i hope some of you who either have these or some like them may have some insight on what i should get and why or why these arent so good.

Here's what I got now:

Pic 1 -
Red dot - Primary Arms Micro Dot Gen3 with Killflash
Laser - Laserlyte Kryponyte green laser
Grip - Magpul AFG


Here's what I had that was along the lines of the stuff you are looking at.

Pic 2-3
Red dot - Tasco Red dot and Tapco riser
Reflex sight - Sightmark
Grip - Mako

There are tons of reviews of each of these already on this forum.

Does this vary with different guns?
Jerry Miculek uses a Burketts 45 degree offset to mount his JP micro reflex to a S&W M&P-15 and that seems to work well for him. I've got a couple of 45 degree mounts around the house someplace, but I haven't seen them for a while, so I can't testify to how they would line up with the bore of the 15-22.

Whatever small dot is on the 45degree mount can be zeroed for the selected range. Probably 50 yards or so, close in since you'd have irons or magnified for 100+ on a .22LR. Then if you use the sight for various other ranges you can't just hold high or low, as the optic isn't over the bore line.

You do have an advantage of a lower height-over-bore vs. a 12 o'clock mounted on top of a scope, which will take a zero fine, but the POA/POI changes at varying ranges will be greater from the increased height over bore.

If you're not using a scope and trying to get a second optic, then there's no need for offset mounts or whatnot.
 
Skip all that other stuff in your first post and take a serious look at Primary Arms. They have very high quality stuff at very reasonable prices. I like there clones, which imitate very closely the real counterparts.

i couldnt get mine to sight in with a 45.. but they make a mount specificly for mounting an optic on the side and you will see them alot on race guns..
