I ordered a brand new M42 to K mount adapter directly from Pentax a few weeks ago. I called Pentax Colorado and the guy was very nice. He said he didn't know when they would have some in. I gave him my credit card info and hoped for the best. I got the adapter in the mail 10 days after I spoke to him. I say give Pentax a call and see what they can do for you.
