Hi! Is it possible to fix M2 frameline, when with 35mm line is seen upper horisontal line from 50mm frame at same time? Same issue without the lens and with the 35mm lens. No help by moving the lever.

Hi mirrored,
yes, this can be fixed without great trouble by any decent repair person. Often inactivity (a Leica that has not been used much recently) can lead to the framelines not being displayed properly.
Sometimes exercising the selection lever can help to solve the problem, though in your case it sounds like you have tried this to no avail.
I have never had to pay for such a repair, but I assume it is not among the problematic repairs, and thus should not cost too much.
Enjoy your M2!

Thank you Ljós! I am happy to hear that it can be fix. 50mm line is not visible in its entire thickness, but it stays even though I use the lever a lot.
If I realize the function correct, 35mm is the extreme position of the lever and it have nothing to do with lens. In other words, 35mm lens does not move the frameline choise at all, and 35mm frame is visible without lens too.
