Got this very abused FM2 off eBait for $28.51, plus shipping. Was missing quite a few parts, had the shutter speed dial misaligned, hot shoe disconnected, etc... Picked up most of the parts the body needed today. Put it back together, and it's useable. Just have to keep the shutter cocked when film is loaded, since one of the leaves on the bottom curtain is coming loose. Doesn't leak light if a lens is mounted, but if I dismount the lens, there is light that seeps through. I expect to have the project finished in the next month or two. Will have to send it in to have the curtain rehung and to be refoamed, but otherwise, it's ready to be used. Already wears a Domke Gripper and a 50f2 Nikkor-HC.
