Works fine with the M2. The problem, Ed, isn't in the removing of the spool on the M3 to reset the M3's infinitely superior counter. What we DO know is that the silly thing only works on M1, M2, or M3 when installed with magnficent precision and maintained with constant attention to detail. It WAS a flop on the marketplace! The Leica users, thirty years ago, must have avoided it in droves. Marc msmall@roanoke.infi.net FAX: +540/343-7315 Cha robh bas fir gun ghras fir!
