I am highly impressed with the clamp lock and QD for my rifle and can now free up my hands between stages and back an forth to the truck. The only negative is the price point. I would buy 3 to 5 more clamps for my tripod, shooting bag, and other gear, but it is simply too expensive. Especially expensive is the tripod grip on post, at $115 plus the $50 clamp lock. $165 is far too much for a gear retention system.
