Since I’m now seeing it posted everywhere, I’ll comment. Not bad, it only took folks two years to realize that KeyMod works just like industrial shelving.

LOL – same as how you can walk into a motorcycle clothing section and see where Crye got the inspiration for their elbow and knee pads from.
Not saying there’s anything wrong with either KeyMod or Crye – but I do find that people throw around the “revolutionary” word rather willy-nilly sometimes…
I remember sneaking a pair of skateboard pads (Rectors–with Woodland camo print, no less) and CCM hockey elbow pads (under my blouse) into something we called MOUT training back in the day and being teased relentlessly about it.
Testify Brother!!! Testify!!!
Oh hey! It’s painfully obvious now…
Here is a article from 2013 comparing the keymod to shelving units

It was all in good fun guys. Tomorrow is a rough day and I thought we needed a laugh.
That is funny. When keymod came out, I didn’t like it for a while because it looked like shelving brackets. I kept thinking, wtf, whoever came up with this just stole it from those shelf brackets…that crap looks like cheap garbage.
I held out for a while then I was in my local gun shop and held a BMC KMR rail and after that, I had to have one. So I threw one on my new custom build. But yeah, that post brought me back to my thoughts in the beginning. Well done!
If its stupid and works, its not stupid. 😉
Anyone want to say what the highest selling keymod accessory is out there?
The Picitinny rail adapter?
Oh, no, that couldn’t be true . . .
That funny stuff right ther!
Sighting of the week: A KeyMod forend mounted with 4x 10″ Picatinny Rail Adapters.
But it’s a small section of rail. The prior modular designed were a great sleek design and like the keymod you added rails where you needed, but you still had threading in the rail (ie the old arms sir). This way there no threading to to strip out or have inserts spinning in place. And the key mod also allows for the screw backer to he entrapped vs some of the original iwc type mounts
I have these exact shelves in my two storage rooms and soon my garage. Modular design FTW.
Tactically operational shelving for a tactical operator as Fak
So I’m pretty sure this picture was taken in my garage. In that container, you might find my girlfriends high school cheerleader pompoms. If I see one of those keep calm and return fire pictures there, I will truly know that SSD is everywhere.
Why doesn’t your girlfriend keep her pompoms in her locker at school, like all the other cheerleaders? :/
Bonus points if you can put some keymod accessories on your shelves 😛
Funny that folks didn’t bother to read Eric Kincel of Vltor(at the time) has written that his inspiration for KeyMod came from shelving platforms.
I live simple products!
As for the pic rails, I was in a local shop today where a kid was picking up his spec’s build with a 15″ Seekins KeyMod and he asked the armorer how much it would cost for , the quad rail look”…. The armorer said, if you want a quad rail I’ll order you one but you wanted light, sleek and simple so that’s what we built. The buyer was concerned with looks instead of function which is why I personally think the Keymod rocks. Both function (#1 importance) and sexy form (#4 on the importance list for me).
I’d actually like to hear the rest of your list…just got finished building a looks based AR15, but I definitely think functionality is high up there
I can tell you what else keymod looks like…
It’s most likely a scheme for armorers to put a bunch of tiny dicks on our guns. They fooled me with the words “modular” and “industry standard”… I knew “operator” was next on the list so I had to buy.
