R2A Rewind Crank

[noimmunity]

Is it normal for the knob on the film rewind crank (part no. 14 in the instructional manual) to protrude outward?
The R3A I had wasn't like that. I just won an R2A on ebay and would like to check it. The protruding knob doesn't seem to impair the function in any way, but since it is different from what I had seen on the R3A, I wonder if it is normal?

It's normal, and doesn't affect the operation of the camera at all.

Thanks, Samuel. That's really good to know.
Actually, with the R3A, that peg on the film crank was occasionally a nuisance. It would easily coome loose, interfering with proper film advance. The design of the crank on the R2A seems like it can't have this problem. Cool!

just fine, mine is that way, a smart little design I think because it has a couple extra uses that way
