Now we all know that Leica is perfect and so if it's stiff (no jokes  
please) that's just how it's supposed to be. Just like the M8 is  
supposed to be a bit IR sensitive.
But of course there's always the possibility that some feeble, limp- 
wristed non-German would have difficulty overcoming the standard  
teutonic settings without a pipe wrench so I'd try driving over the  
river and pounding on the door of their repair facility with a gun- 
butt for a quiet chat. Storm the citadel. It's not as if you have to  
go to work now is it? :-)
Probably needs a slight adjustment and they shouldn't really let it  
go out like that now should they?
