He dose anybody tie back their levers on ARMS ring mounts. If so what do they use?

I just want to know WHY anyone would do this...  

Have you had a throw lever come loose?  Because I have certainly NEVER heard of it happening.  Tieing it would destroy the purpose of having a quick throw lever in the first place.

No I haven't,Just asking if anybody else has because there is a place to tie it back .

Mine are all very tight; I can't imagine them coming loose on their own or getting accidentally bumped open.  I actually wish ARMS made the finger pads a little bigger to make them easier to open.

If I was going to parachute with my rifle, I'd probably zip-tie them on.  For most other purposes, though, it's unnecessary IMO.

I own three or four sets and they're so tight that I often need a little bit of help getting them loose.

I had a little problem one night with a Brand New ARMS #19S.
I had recently bought one when they first came out from MSTN and was low crawling through very heavy Brush. At some point my TA11D came off!!!!
Luckily my Close friend who was moving into the OP with me (behind me) caught it in the rib cage and picked it up.
I use a small size zip tie just in case a little snip with a Knife and its off when you want it to be.
I should add that this is not common and I ave moved through many other situations and never had a problem, However nothing is perfect , so just like Dummy cord, Tie EVERYTHING down!!!!!!!!!
