1. A gun rail mountable article comprising: a) a housing having an attachment portion and an image portion, said attachment portion having an upper flange with a beveled descending distal end adapted to extend into a mounting channel of said gun rail and a perpendicular lower flange with a flat surface defining an article mounting channel therebetween, said flat surface having flexible tabs having an arcuate shape extending outwardly from said flat surface allowing said attachment portion to attach to said gun rail by either sliding said attachment portion onto the gun rail or by snapping said attachment portion onto the gun rail;b) said image portion for displaying a design plate having an image or item, said design plate having a single fastener aperture for mounting to said image portion; andc) a pair of mating fastener apertures at opposite ends of said image portion each co-aligned with said design plate fastener element aperture so that said design plate can be rotated 180 degrees and fastened to either fastener aperture whereby said housing can be mounted on a left side or right side gun rail to accommodate viewing the design plate in a desired orientation. 2. The gun rail mountable article according to claim 1, wherein said image portion comprises an image portion receptacle defined by a receptacle ridge projecting peripherally from said housing. 3. The gun rail mountable article according to claim 1, having gun rail attachment fastener elements which when-tightened provide a bias urging said flexible tabs to apply pressure to said gun rail. 4. The gun rail mountable article according to claim 1, wherein said image portion is an independent design plate that is flush mounted to said attachment portion. 5. An ornamental article mountable to, and in combination with, the gun rail of a weapon comprising: a) a housing comprising: i) an image portion having a peripherally projecting receptacle ridge defining an image portion receptacle; andii) an attachment portion having an upper flange with a beveled descending distal end adapted to extend into a mounting channel of said gun rail and a perpendicular lower flange with a flat surface defining an article mounting channel therebetween, said flat surface having flexible tabs having an arcuate shape extending outwardly from said flat surface allowing said attachment portion to attach to said gun rail by either sliding said attachment portion onto the gun rail or by snapping said the attachment portion onto the gun rail;b) a plurality of selectable design plates having a single fastener aperture for mounting to said image portion;c) a pair of mating fastener apertures at opposite ends of said housing each co-aligned with said design plate fastener element aperture disposed in said housing extending through said attachment portion and said image portion so that said design plate can be rotated 180 degrees and fastened to either fastener aperture whereby said housing can be mounted on a left side or right side gun rail to accommodate viewing the design plate in a desired orientation; andd) a design plate fastener element to thread through said co-aligned fastener apertures to secure said design plate within said image portion. 6. The ornamental article mountable to a gun rail according to claim 5, wherein said attachment portion further comprises a pair of threaded gun rail fastener apertures in said lower flange with set screws terminating at said flexible tabs disposed proximal said article mounting channel wherein tightening said set screws provides a bias urging said tabs against the transverse channel ribs of said gun rail to secure said article in a selected position.
