my r2m frame lines are askew, and i'd like the RF adjusted to factory specs if there are issues. RF looks a bit dusty inside, too ...

I've used Essex camera for a number of repairs on RFs other than Leicas. They do good work.

essexcamera.com I believe.

My R3a curtains weren't opening all the way so I sent it to Japan to get Cosina to repair it. It cost 100$ but they cleaned it up real nice and even got the beer out that was jamming-up my ISO dial.

It was expensive but there isn't anyone else within 4000km that could fix it competently (that I'm aware of).
