I would agree that "New Release GP" item are problematic. They appear to want to be first and prematurely start production before all the kinks are sufficiently worked out letting let the consumers do THEIR testing.

If interested I have a NIB SIG Something Extra with junk wood sitting in my work shop for sale. The wood was so bad and too much to replace that I bought another kit, which is on the way, hoping for better luck this time. I have heard they are great flyers though.
