I bought a near Mint looking M4-2 some months ago. It seemed a little finicky so I sent it over to one of the illustrious Leica repair people oft-mentioned here. It came back, after some work, with the message that the best that could be done had been done. The camera, I was told, was a good example of the sub-standard fit and finishing which characterized many M4-2 bodies. Without many parts being changed, it could not be adjusted up to the standards of the earlier M cameras. Lesson learned. I believe the M4-P is far better made.
