microview Posted February 20, 2020 Share #63 Â Posted February 20, 2020 Glad you finally had success; I was going to suggest Aperture, near the BBC, as they can do certain mechanical repairs/adjustments. They had a Leica dealership last year. https://apertureleica.com/ Â Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are quite flimsy and the plastic is a bit on the hard side - so not very grippy - and feels like it could damage the paint on the barrel. Occasionally though, they are useful as jar openers, mostly in the kitchen... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
