[Konvas] magazine modification

Goron,
I'm assuming you are referring to this FAQ article:
http://konvas.org/faq/what-kind-of-modifications-can-i-do-to-my-konvas-kinor.html

It's been a while since I read those suggestions. Matt Uhry posted them 
in January of 2001 and there weren't any drawings on it that I know of.

I'm not positive, but I believe he was talking about the locking pin 
mechanism. While it can be a nuisance, it does stop the film in a 
specific place - meaning that it would probably be better off left alone.

I don't have a mag in front of me right now to take a look to make sure 
that's what he's suggesting - does anyone else have a thought on this?

I'd suggest just leaving it alone and ignoring that one for now. I've 
never removed mine (that I know of) and I've loaded and shot a lot of 
film through the Konvas magazines.

As for the cogs he's talking about - again, I don't have a mag in front 
of me right now to comment...

Cheers,
