I'm familiar with the kit but not its intricacies. Did you modify it in anyway?
In any case it's very well done. I like the weathering, especially the chipping on the back.

For the various handles the kit offers plastic parts or they can be made from brass rods.
i've chosen the brass ...
also, the shock absorbers in the legs can be made from one molded plastic part or as a maneuverable assy made from several parts. here i also chosen the 2nd option.
beside that, its build OOB.
