SCORE!!! Disaster averted...

So I was on Craiglist and I saw a post for a guy selling a K1000 in good condition and two unknown lenses for $35. I figure, what the heck, I'll go and check it out, I may score a winner. Well I got there and the K1000 was in great condition. He also had a M 50 f/2, I was hoping that he would have a f/1.2 and not know it but no such luck. But he also had a JCPenny 135mm f/2.8. [SCORE]

I was so happy to see the 135mm that I just popped it onto my K10D without any reservations... then it hit me.... then I saw it... the lovely KR* stamp on the side. [DISASTER]

*For those fo you who have no idea what I am talking about, KR mount lenses which can work on Pentax cameras will get stuck on digital Pentax SLRs. These lenses were originally made for Ricoh cameras and have an extra pin on the mount. The Ricoh pin which causes KR mount lenses to get stuck may be removed in about 15 minutes, the only tool required is a small screwdriver. Modified KR mount lenses may be mounted on Pentax digital SLRs without getting stuck, becoming the equivalent of KA mount lenses which allow automatic and manual modes.

Fear struck I just froze because I knew that it was not coming off, but I had to give it a shot. No such luck. So I fiddled with it for a bit, then decided that I would just buy it and deal with it later, which had to be NOW because I am in the moddle of a photo shoot. Soooo I get home and started searching on here and came accross the Ritz Camera Repair Department method of taking the lens off as desribed in another thread. This basically consists or putting the camera in MF, holding down the lens release button and just ripping it off.Worked like a champ. [DISASTER AVERTED]

The K10D is a brute, and can withstand brute force measures.
