Thought I'd post a few pictures of the 419 RailChanger for those that have Arca systems. Won't get to shoot it for a week or two but initial impressions are super solid.

Waxed Pint Sized GC feels awesome to the hand and is very supple compared to the non-waxed versions (when newer). Also, as a rear bag, it works awesome. Pretty damn versatile and easy to manipulate.

Two positions to mount rail adapter to run on rail: regular and flat/sideways.

I got to play with the prototype at the PR Expo. For people that want their bag attached to their rifle, it's probably the best option out there in terms of stability. I'd still rather hand place my Pint Size, but the Rail Changer is a solid bit of gear.

I could see why you'd want hand control of bag. In my quick test, it seemed easy to "flick" on to barricade by hand whereas on rifle you need to pull and push a button to get it settled into position.

Plus I've found that giving the bag a little "flop" onto the barricade, then dropping the rifle onto the bag helps settle it down very quickly.

Any feedback to report? I was considering trying one out.
Have used it all year; love it. They also added the RailChanger X as @Skunkworx mentioned. Both systems have their place but I've become very attached to the RCX system. Still have both but a large GC (adding 2-3lbs of play sand) with RCX is about as stable as it gets for nontraditional supported positions.

110% recommend either or both systems.
