Does anyone make an attachment system for a long allen wrench? Preferably attaching to the rail. I have an AGB allen wrench that's about 8" long and won't fit into anything on the gun. I could DIY something but maybe somebody makes one already?

Does it have to be that long? Mine fits in the pistol grip.

It would work with about 5" of wrench, but that's still too long to store anywhere else.

It wouldn't be hard for someone to design a couple of Picatinny Index Clips with a built in clip to secure an Allen wrench and 3D print them. I did a quick search, I don't see an existing file to download, but it would be easy to do. They would only cost pennies to print.
EDIT: This is the closest thing I have found that could be easily modified to hold an allen wrench. |

Look at some of the cable/wire management offerings, possibly something there.
Arson Machine has a picitinny set that may work  Even if one had to mod them some.ETA: I'm envisioning some Magpul XTM covers coupled with a ranger band on a picitinny rail. I may have to try that.... |

Sounds like there's a need for MLOC or some type of rail slot magnets.

I wonder if you could use the same kind of thing to keep the cleaning rod tight against the rail.

How often do you really need to adjust that?

Maybe some of these LaRue Index Clips would work to hold it. If the hook needs enlarged, perhaps you could boil some water, dip the hook into the water to soften it, slightly open the hook and cool it with cold water.

I put mine in the battery storage tube of my stock. Just need to cut the short leg down slightly.
