Picatinny Wire Management

[titsonritz]

We’ve got a thread for M-LOK, but I’m not finding one for Pic rails and with so many of us sticking with or going back to the ol’ cheese-graters I figure we need one. The only two that come to my mind are the old LaRue index clips with the hooks and Arson Machine Picatinny WireGuide™ Clamps. So what options are out there today for wire control on Picatinny handguards?

Index Clips worked really well before I abandoned wires for illumination devices years ago.

If I were forced to use a pressure pad, I probably wouldn't even look for a new solution. Index Clips are in a drawer waiting to be used. I still use the non wire-restraining clips on Picatinny rails.

What's wrong with some good ole fashioned zip ties? Or One-Wrap if you wanna be extra.

I've used them for years. Also dig those larue clips...but don't trust them as much as wire ties.

Ha, I found my index clips. I had separated out the wire management clips into a small ziplock and placed them in a secure location. It only took me three days to find them, they were not in the box of shame with the regular ones. I dug out a couple pressure pads and re rigged a couple white lights, gonna larp with this shit till I get bored again.

I love the LaRue clips for general use. The one thing that mental patient makes that I like. I never did run any wires though... I'd rip that crap apart within a month.

Multiple Surefire, Unity, Mod Light, they all live in a box. Never had a failure, just don't like them. My Clicky Caps are wireless. Sometimes if I want a light at 3:00, I use a ds00 or xm07 cap for the offset button and go under the rail. Of course I'm only needing a white light.

Cloud Defensive LCS works well for me, but I’m only dealing with one cable from a single WML.

It’s a 1913 mount for the tape switch. You can route unused cable within the mount, leaving only the bare minimum exposed.

I snake the wires through the rail and combo of zipties and hockey tape.

I wanna say some of Manta's rail covers are designed with cableways. They have a really nice kit for wrangling VFG-mounted tapeswitch cable that the Marines adopted.
