I bought a Fed 4 (Russian Leica work-alike) yesterday, and it turns out that it's in very good condition except that one of the two rotating locks that holds the back on is missing a components, the rotating disk thingy that actually engages with the camera body. I may simply buy a non-working body and cannibalise it, they turn up quite often, but I wondered if someone knows of a source for spares.

Never mind - I got another body with a shutter fault very cheaply, I'll cannibalize the bits I need.
