[ARCHIVED THREAD] - DBAL-A2 Mounting Question

Posted: 7/2/2008 2:18:24 PM EDT

I just received a DBAL-A2. I am going to mount it on the top rail. However, never owning a light or laser that is activated by a pressure pad, I would like advise on how to mount the pressure switch and run the wire so that it does not get tangled on stuff. Any examples, pictures, etc., would be a help. I hate to mount it then find out the hard way I did a bonehead move.

The rail system I have is the Surefire M73 (small one for 11.5" upper mounted on M16).

Thank you.

I don't have any pics of mine, but you place the velcro on the vertical foregrip and attach the pigtail switch to it. As for the wire, I secured it to my rail with a tiny ziptie.

I bought a "short" PEQ2A cable and use it in conjuction with a Tango Down Rail cover w/ PEQ2A pressure pad pocket

I use black electrical tape to secure my switches to the VFG, seems to work pretty well.

Cut-down bicycle innertubes work well too.
