Pentax used to make them going both ways. I have 2 of each, but
unfortunately I use them, so they are not for sale. The 'A' adapter allows
mounting Leica TM lenses on Pentax M42 cameras, and the 'B' adapter allows
mounting Pentax M42 lenses on Leica TM (or M, with adapter) bodies. I used
one of the latter initially to mount a Pentax fisheye on my Leicas, but now
use the Leitz made 22232 adapter.
