Has anyone else had multiple problems with the Leica quick-load system?



I recently acquired an M4, and have wound up trashing about a half-dozen
rolls of film (and far too many lost shots) because the &^%$#@! film had not
advanced.  I?ve tried checking it (it seems to be advancing before I shut
the door), and I still lose rolls.



I?ve NEVER lost a roll with the old style spool threading to a misload.  Is
it me, or is there something strange with this system that I?m missing?  At
this rate I?ll probably look to swap it for a CLAd M2 with the good old
spool system.
