Yes! If you didn't buy a screw mount adapter from Pentax (Pentax Brand), then I have found that the, often Chinese, adapters need to be sanded down on the back just a tad before they fit flush with the lens. Also, you might consider super gluing the adapter to the back of the lens if you plan on keeping it forever/never removing it.
