There are plenty of  M4 / AR-15 owners who own several rifles, each with its own set up. There are also many I know who only own one rifle and use it for many purposes. There's a lot of stuff to hang on a rifle that has many purposes. So we have put together a list of affordable accessories that canbe useful for your rifle.

Absolutely necessary for your range bag. The LULA AR-15 mag loader is your new best friend. Don’t wear out your thumb and fingers before you get behind the trigger by loading your AR magazines with the LULA loader. It fits over the top of all metal and polymer AR mags and loads them fast and effortlessly. The lever at the top engages the magazine’s spring and pushes the rounds down into the magazine.
