Are you kidding? That's just about exactly what I was looking for. (I think I've seen that somewhere on your site before but forgot about it.)

In case there's any question about it, just remember: You Is Da Man.

Getting back to my original problem (my Zorki-3M that often misfires on B): having read this explanation, it seems the problem is that the 2nd curtain pawl is just blasting on by the release lever which should be catching it. I'm wondering if this has anything to do with the release lever spring tension. (This spring pushes in two directions: down and in. Down seems OK, as the lever rides up and down as the shutter button is pushed.) Is it possible there's not enough inward tension on it? or maybe too much?

Thanks again for this very nice little tutorial.
