Hello,
I am film camera enthusiast, I have a darkroom, develop my film at home, etc. Along with that I collect cameras.
Like most collectors, I browse local ads frequently. I saw this camera pop up, I decided to take a risk and check it out.
In searching for Wehrmacht Leica's on good old Google, I saw this forum come up a few times. I figured I'd share my find with people who may be interested.
Here's an interesting reference from James Lagers Leica Illustrated History book, if you look at the top left example in the photo you will see a camera with similar inscriptions:

I'm really curious what the M number's significance was.
I'm also curious if WW2 collectors are even interested in such cameras?
