Then I bought a used 135 mm f2.5 macro SAKAR auto MC lens. I was happy
at first but then I
noticed that it has a problem:  The little metal stop is worn down so
that it does not lock
into positon on the camera.  Question is there a quick fix ?  I've
though of mixing up a tiny
amount of epoxy putty ;)  but it seems like a really nice lens and I
don't want to mess it up.

I guess I could just continue to use it but I'm afraid that I'll
accidentally twist it off just
when I'm taking a macro of a saltwater crocodile's incisor teeth or
something !

I suggest you discard the 135mm and switch to a 1000mm for a little more
working distance when working on the incisor's of a salty.
