How about if you just lie to the people and tell them that the lab lost or otherwise screwed up the film? ;-) As for the alternate loading system, I believe you are thinking of the Quick Load kit (catalogue number 14260). There are quite varying opinions of it, some people hate it, others like it. I am in the latter group and use one in my M3. It does not, however, make loading as easy as an M6. It is still comparatively fiddly, but your chances of similar mishaps are reduced. You should be able to find one relatively easy at any well-stocked Leica dealer in Germany.
