I asked your question earlier but about an M4. Apparently Leica has replacement kits for M3s and M6s. You can buy ($40) and do the labor yourself, or send to Leica and they will replace for you. Since my camera is already at Leica I'm having them reskin it, Approx $80.00 including labor. I was intrigued though by the suggestion of an NYC LUG member who reskinned his M3 with snakeskin he purchased for $20. Bill Franson At 12:19 PM 3/9/98 -0800, you wrote: >I'm just curious.
