If you were to rate its feel and quality, in your opinion, where would you
say it falls in the Jr gent- jr statesman area. Perhaps there is a better
compatible
I never made/purchased a statesman, so I can't compare. I would place it slightly above the standard Jr Gent II, but below the Citizen. I would not put the Triton in the same class as the Jr. George, Anthony, etc., but of course the Triton is a fraction of the cost. Naturally, this just my opinion and I wouldn't disagree with anyone else's.
I have always managed to make the Berea kits work, and there was no trouble with this one. However, I have experienced some poorly fitting and sized parts over the last 12 months (from double-barreled kits I bought 12 months ago and have turned them over the last year). Either they are not matching the parts correctly, packaging the wrong parts, etc.. Perhaps, my experience is limited to me or has since been corrected. I hope that is the case.
Not to get off on more of a tangent, but I have has several female customers buy the Triton (BP and RB) which is why I used the turq.- colored material (to appeal to all). I would have thought it too big - proving I know nothing. This will go into my inventory of pens to sell.
