The FM2 (and FM2n) does not have the flip tab but the FM does. Too bad, as the FM2 is a great camera and reminds me of the wonderful Pentax MX. (Just to keep on thread)

On later amatuer bodies(kind of an arbitrary term on Nikon's part but generally anything more than a single digit Nikon), the tab is not moveable and damage will result to the camera/lens if one is mounted on the body. (There are a few exceptions eg FM, and FE).
Not the FM, or FM2. I have owned both, neither had a flip up tab. My FE did, however.
