Pentax 67 back pops open

[revdocjim]

The piece that houses the spring loaded lock for the back cover of my 67 is loose and rocks back and forth, causing the back to pop open. How do I tighten up that piece?

I don't have one. That's never stopped me before though
If it's a sliding latch on the end of the camera and has a leatherette covering on it there should be screws under the leather.
Carefully peel the stuff back & take a look. Pliobond or contact cement works to glue it back in place. Use the cement on one surface ONLY you may want to get under there again.

Thanks John. That did the trick perfectly!
