my big concern is  all that weight hanging on a flimsy M-42 adapter.

???? You mean you'd hold the combo by the camera body? Doesn't the lens have a tripod collar?

Jim, I think that the 500mm that was modified was a screw mount lens.
I know the one that I saw locally for sale is, and my big concern is
all that weight hanging on a flimsy M-42 adapter.

What am I missing here?  My Pentax K500/4.5 mounts just fine on both my
K1000 film body and my K20D digital body, with no problem in focusing to
 infinity.  Of course, focusing is manual unless I use my F1.7x AF
Teleconverter behind the lens...
