When our local Pentax rep was in town a couple of weeks ago, I tried this
with the M100 Macro.  I set the aperture ring to f8.0, looked into the front
of the lens and tripped the shutter at 1/8 sec.  The lens DID stop down.  It
seems that all you lose with a K or M lens is metering.  A hand held meter
should work in these situations.
