I'll tell you this much - clips feel so much more natural - in fact I would say the basic, 6-dart clips are the most natural, even if they aren't entirely the most efficient means of storing ammunition. More importantly, clips don't alter the balance of the weapon because their center of mass is the dead center of the weapon. Accuracy, stability, and (in my opinion the most vital) how the weapon feels in your hands are all important, no matter what side of the battle you're on. This latter point I will agree is satisfied by 6, 12, and 18-dart clips more or less equally. I prefer 6-dart clips since they do the least towards altering the balance of the weapon - but it doesn't matter that much.
