I expect that any third party lens good enough to be worth repairing is
going to be nearly impossible to replace.

Can it be that simply hunting down another sample on
KEH/PentaxForums/used dept of B&H and/or Adorama/etc would be a more
optimal way to proceed?

My Vivitar S1 70-210mm f2.8~4.0, the third version with the A contacts took
a fall of about 2 1/2 feet to a concrete floor. Everything seems to be all
right except the aperture lever is binding just ever so much which is
keeping it from stopping down normally. I took it apart, as much as I felt
comfortable doing, while still thinking I'd get it back together, and was
unable to discover where the lever is binding, though it's just enough to
keep it from moving freely through part of it's travel. Even at that I
managed to lose one small screw.
Any new Pentax equipment I'd send to C.R.I.S. Older stuff I'd send to
Pentaxs.com, but I've never damaged an older non Pentax lens I thought was
worth having repaired, so I'm at a loss.
Any suggestions would be welcome, preferably within the continental U.S.,
but Canada probably isn't out of the question. Though I'm not sure what
kind of hoops I'll have to jump through to get a used lens for repair
through customs.
