Hmmm, interesting thought, Phil.
What about the M4-P do you want on that chopped M9, the manual shutter
advance (a la RD1)?
The angled rewind would have to go; I don't see any purpose for it.
The rangefinder is the M9 version, or do you want the LED display
eliminated?
I suppose it would need the 6-bit sensor on the lens mount. And the
internal clearance corrected for the DR Summicron.
