Hey so i just recieved a leica DBP from 1951 model number 870 827, it appears to be in working shape and in in great condition. I have shot film and digital in the past, and thought i could figure it out easily, unfortunately, i have never used a camera this old and can't figure out even the slightest bit when google searching. I dont have the instruction manuel so im also screwed there lol. Anyways if anyone who has this same camera, or something similar and can show me/link me to a place to learn how to use it, I would be very happy. thanks.

Here's the URL for a Leica IIIc manual in pdf format. Download it and read it, then read it again. Especially the page on trimming the film - that's important to do correctly. Good luck, enjoy the camera and let us know how it works out for you.
