I just bought a pair of Gen 1 M Frames that were supposed to only be suffering a crack on top of one of the hinges. When I received them they were in great conditions -- except for the bottom part of that same hinge is almost completely missing.
I've been looking for these for years at a price I could stomach, and I thought getting them at $150 was a good deal, but it seems like this hinge isn't fixable.
And paying $200 for an entire replacement frame (which is all I can find on eBay and the other markets right now) is more than I want to pay.
Any suggestions? Are there other places to find replacement parts? Is it possible to fabricate something close to the hinge and glue it on? I could still return them and get my money back, but damn I'd hate to do that too.
Thank you!
