It is lightweight and the ball head movement is very smooth.

However I do have some areas of concerns as far as the design goes.

The first being the "2nd stage-like" latch that is spring-loaded seems to make a lot noise when pressed. I can't imagine this being a good thing in the middle of the fields.

Second, when wrapping my hand around the device, the latch that secures the ARCA mount to the ARCA rail protrudes too far out between my thumb and my index. Perhaps move this latch to the dominate shooters side so that it is not in the way of the support hand functions. This would also be great in supporting the main ball head latch when shooters need to release the latch for target acquisition without anything (ARCA-latch) getting in the way of the support hand.

Also, probably not AS important as the design nuisance, but just as annoying was the lack of manual with the order. There was no information both with the order or online on how to operate a Tricer-AK product. For a solid hour, I was trying to figure out on how to tighten the ARCA latch bc it was so loose.

This product in this price range could be great!
