I did have a Sigma 50-500mm EX lens, nice lens but far to heavy to hand hold, for me, I found it a bit front heavy, the 150-500 is a better balance, for me, any way.
I also may be able to use the converter on the 150-500 as well.
As to hand held,the balance is very important, a gun if not balanced right would be no good to shoot with, the same with a camera.

The converter is used on my Tamron 70-200mm f2.8 mainly and will be used more during the spring and summer, when we get better light, The 150-500mm I want is a really good lens for wildlife and any good longish shots, I did have a Sigma 50-500mm EX lens, nice lens but far to heavy to hand hold, for me, I found it a bit front heavy, the 150-500 is a better balance, for me, any way.

Thanks you all for the comments
I took a deep breath and decided to keep my Pentax gear. It would be a shame to sell it in new condition. I was going to switch to Canon cause i like their zoom lenses such as 70-200 and the big hefty D20-30-40 body.
I'm into aviation photography and i have trouble finding a good zoom lens over 300 or prime
Some pics taken with this gear flickr
Cheers

Ebay, an Indian company sell the kit you want, spanners and the lens vice.
I did have the kit from them, but have since got rid of it all,my hands are not steady enough.
Also you could try SRB-Griturn 01582 661878, they even make special parts.
