I am still having the hardest time loading film into my M4-P

Well... once you discover the sprocket wheel, you've found the answer and you will be a successful loader from now on. Welcome to the secret club! :)

Now, seriously, I'm glad you took a closer look. I owned my Leicas for about a year before figuring out that the sprocket wheel kind of pushes the film leader into the tulip (which in turn, does its own to pull). Now... take a dummy roll and practice loading. Once you've done it about a dozen times, there will be no more misloads.

Have fun! :)
