Got myself a 15-22 and I'm eager to add a red dot sight, a foregrip, and a flashlight. Do most rail accessories work with it? How can I confirm they’ll fit before I buy anything?
A 1913 picatinny rail is a universal size. Most things are labeled clearly for that system. I have picked up a couple Chinese knockoff rails that were barely undersized. I swapped out the adjustable side of the jaw on the accessory with another and they worked fine. You get what you pay for.
I mounted a red dot on my 15-22 and it makes more fun for the wife and grandkids to shoot. The only thing that I dont like about the red dot is that they don't form good sight usage as that red dot may not always work
