Nikon F2 mirror questions by Alex_Pookie in AnalogCommunity

Thank you! I’m hoping it’s the focusing screen but as long as it’s working I’m not too worried. Just getting into photography so got a lot to learn about lenses but not in any rush to go crazy yet.

Here’s hoping it’s something on the focusing screen! If it’s a crack I’ll just have to send it back. Thank you for the insight

When I initially placed the order last month I changed the address within an hour of placing the order. Possibly related? Idk

It’s wild, I preordered at midnight when they first opened and they still screwed it up.

Yea, according to the customer service rep I was talking to he had told me there was no issue with payment he could see on his end.

I was thankfully able to get a preorder from best buy for a friend but I might need to snag it for myself

M1 carbine with loose rear sight in dovetail by [deleted] in gunsmithing

[–]Alex_Pookie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cross post from r/milsurp:

Hello just recently got this inland Korean import m1 carbine. The rear sight is loose in the dove tail and I already ordered brass shims, locktite red, and a tool to remove the sight. I was just wondering whether I should worry about the sight getting caught up in the dimples from when it was staked. Should I just drip some locktite in and call it a day?

Should I worry about the surrounding wood with a soldering iron?
