silly question, but how many 1" square clasps do you have to coat at once? As u/the_crx states, the Eastwood gun is fine, but has some build limitations for longevity. Great starter type gun, and also good for quick colour changes, small things, etc.
RedLine makes a next step up. A bit sturdier. I'm sure you can find them cheaper, as I'm just looking for quick links. The advantage to this cup-gun being on the bottom is there is less spitting. It means more when doing candy, clears, effects.
Columbia has the next step up. Now we're getting into similar to job-shop type of coating guns. One of the styles, is drawn from a fluidized bed (the other is a stick-feed). Larger batches, smoother finishes with no regard to how the gun is held. Variable Kv. Things get easier with these types of models. BUT, cleanup and care is a bit more in-depth.
After this, we are really stepping into pro-user territory. More options, better flow, ergonomic and accountable for years without issue. My favorite in the lower price point is the Nordson. It's a good solid gun. If you have the money, though. I'd be going after a Gema gun. I've used them for almost three decades. They simply perform at the upper tier.
Best of luck in your search. Let us know what you chose!
I ended up ordering this:

I hope it works. If it doesn't what are my options for masking and baking? I'm using prismatic powders that have a 12 min cure time. I would really like to tackle 3 colors.
I'm a diy person using a harbor freight gun and a toaster oven. I ended up going with powder coat after trying model paint, spray paint, and a bunch of other things. Nothing I was using could survive polishing or a buffer. I stumbled across powder coating and I'm loving the hobby. I know most of the posts on this sub are more professional content and I'm a hobbyist. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'd also add that you should get an inline gauge that can set the PSI, that way you KNOW that the PSI is consistent at that part of the hose.
This is the one I plan on buying, sounds like it might fix your issue, i'd also get another 5 feet of hose to go from that to your gun.
Good luck!
