What about lenses produced in Leica M mount? One user of this forum sent me pictures of a 40mm and 100mm lens supposedly made for the Leica CL - they of course had M-mounts. Other than his pictures, I have found no other information on these lenses. Anyone else know about Russian lenses in M mount?

I saw the 40 and 100 on ebay recently, but they didn't reach reserve even with some good money offered for them. So if you thought of them as inexpensive alternatives, that is apparantly not the case.
