Title: Amazon Firearm Accessory Weirdness
Post by: Ben on January 07, 2023, 12:14:11 PM

I always find it interesting to see which gun accessories that Amazon finds acceptable and which they consider evil. While I will pick it up at my LGS, I went to Amazon to look at reviews on AR vertical foregrips.

My search term was "vertical foregrip". It brought a bunch up, but all of them were weirdly named Chinese knockoffs. It appears that Amazon considers vertical foregrips evil, as all the Chinese ones were labeled similarly to: "Ateomnza Outdoor Sports Tool, Providing Great Convenience", obviously to skirt algorithms.  :rofl:

Anyway, I think it's comical as to how Amazon bans or doesn't ban gun stuff. Their "ban" department obviously doesn't have anyone in it who knows anything about guns.

Amazon gets their ban algorithms from Facebook.
