PS for Jimnie - This is my Sig Wonder that I've extensively modified for no reason other than I wanted to do it. The kit is by Sig but the model was designed by Bruce Thorpe. Apparently he didn't mind that I modified his design a little.

In fact, on my site I always invite the manufacturer to respond to anything that I've written about their model and offer to post their reply unedited. They never take me up on it, but at least they have the opportunity to address my criticisms or add whatever they want to say about their kit.
