Hi Roland,

KamelaLeder in California(www.kamelaleder.com)
makes a M6 half-case adapted for the TA Rapidwinder.
It's beautifully made, and of very high quality.  Unfortunately,
the Rapidwinder trigger lever is further recessed into the 
case, making  unfolding it more difficult; not an ideal 
situation if you have to react quickly.

I had a chance to buy one  at a very, very good price from 
KameraLeder (I loaned them my Rapidwinder to design 
the leather case), but returned it because it slows 
me down too much.

George of Kameraleder is a trustworthy gentleman.
