Several of use have them and they are the cats ass. To fix the security issue on the bottom, buy two of the Versa buttons from Lone Wolf and one of their straps that goes with their sticks. There are two bolts used in the manufacturing process that can be removed and the Versa buttons are installed throw those holes. Fluteman can give you the specs for the hardware. Once you do this, it's a solid a stand as you can get and far more comfortable than any other hang on I've ever been in. I love these stands...
