[ARCHIVED THREAD] - What all can I put on rails?

Posted: 5/2/2004 6:49:21 AM EDT

So, I plan to get a Yankee Hill free float rail system. These use standard picatinny rails. What all can I mount on them?
So far I have:
Optics
Flashlights
Vertical foregrips
Lasers

I'm sure there's a bunch I'm missing...What else can I add?
edited to add: No grenade launchers!

Don't forget:

Cell Phone.
TV remote.
Toilet.
Kitchen sink.
You already have cat toy down.
Your keys.
Wallet attached to chain.
Beer holder.
Bottle top opener.

Hope this helps

You only forgot bipod or bipod adapter

IMHO the realistic items are what you have listed minus the [dr_evil] "laser" [/dr_evil] and the bipod.

You can also mount a sling loop. Saw one somewhere, can't remember where.

I think there is also an attachment for wives.

Also seen a rail mounted bayonet recently, but that was on a shotgun.

37mm Flare Launcher! Technically its NOT a grenade launcher! hehehe Grenande launchers are 40mm. Under optics are you including night vision in that catagory? If notm there's something you can add. I can't really think of anything else....but then again I'm new to the AR scene.
