Thanks for posting the folding pictures Dave.... that looks pretty good. As far as bending the wire stock, that's what I did to mine and for shooting the irons I found it improved the ergonomics by lowering the stock when in the shooting position, and even running a red dot up top it felt fine. When I bent the stock I was just trying to make the folded package a bit tighter, the fact it improved the feel of the wire stock was a bonus.... 
I really do like the pistol grip improvement, that's the one area where the Little Badger's are lacking in ergo's and require some un orthodox hand positions.
