Thinking of getting a few M lenses, but need a converter first, anyone have one for sale for a good price? Shipping to UK.

M lenses will not need a converter to work on Pentax DSLRs...

Do you perhaps mean 'M42' ?

I have a used "Pentax K Lens Mount Adapter to M42 Screw Lens" which I recently bought but do not now need, if that's what you are after. I have not used it myself.
£5 (inc. postage) and it's yours. PM if interested

See link below Jon, I've bought several from this seller and found them to be very good. I always remove the spring clips so I can attach them permanently to the lens and they work just as a K-mount lens, except of course there's no auto aperture control.

These are flush fitting, so no loss of infinity focus.
