The screw cameras are fun but if you already have an M2 then the CL would seem so much more usable. The old Leica might attract attention but the CL looks like many an oldish compact camera. You get a brighter clearer viewfinder (no need for seperate ones on top) and there's a selection of lenses you can use with it. If you favour the 28mm focal length you might wish to consider a Minolta CLE instead. good luck in the unsafety wave...
