I haven't tested the Rip Clip in the field yet, but from testing and fiddling around at home, I'm not particularly impressed. The feed rate is not particularly consistent -- maybe I'm just spoiled because of my Q-Loader, but the paint seemed to jam up inside and only come out in spurts after some coaxing. I've also caused it to jam up pretty badly already. Maybe this will be OK in the field where there's usually a bit of jostling... But I'm not too impressed so far.
This thing is really heavy as well, particularly with 4 AA's. Again, kind of been living a sheltered life with my Q-Loader.
Internally, the little anti-jam arm looks to be made of plastic. That thing is just asking to be broken off.
Will have to wait until I get it to the field to get the final verdict. I'm also looking at wiring up an intellifeed switch to where the RF module would go.
