I agree 100% that most who purchased the sigma only did so because of the price. Myself included I would have never bought it if they didnt offer the two free mags at $299.

I also agree that this is a good gun to tinker with because of the low cost. I do the same thing to my lower cost guns. My only concern is for those who purchase the Sigma as their first gun for a dedicated carry gun. In that case any modifications to the firing mechanism would be ill advised unless you have the skill and knowledge.

There are many out there who just obtained their CHL and purchase the Sigma because of the low cost. Which there is no problem with that at all the Sigma makes a great carry gun if left as is from factory.

I wouldnt want my life to depend on a spring I pulled out of a pen or a pencil.
