    Maybe a Cheaper way out?

    It’s a great thought and something I can attest to! With time and hard work, and some upgrades parts over the years here and there, traditions and other mass produced kits can turn out real nice!

    Pedersoli locks bad?

    Coming in late to this post- but never had any huge issues with pedersoli locks pre or post Covid.
