I think it's more like Pentax was trying to save a few bucks and forced
their customers to purchase the original rear cap as accessories at some
point in mid-90's. Somehow they realized that didn't work and then included
the good old cap again.

I've bought a number of Pentax lenses since the mid '90's and none of them
came with the cheap rear

for reasons of their own.

I bought a month ago from Adorama a new FA 50 f1.4 lens, and I got
surprised to get it with the plastic cheapo push on back cap. I promply
replaced it with one of my ( backup) real FA back caps. hmmm, strange
is that I bought an FA 135mm f2.8 almost 2 years ago and had the real FA
rear
Every one of my FA's bought in the late 90's or as recent as 2001 have
all had the good rear cap. I have yet to see a new lens from Pentax
that came with the cheap cap.

The only lenses that I have purchased that did not have a rear cap were
those included with the camera. If the lens was pulled out of a camera kit,
it is unlikely that it would have a rear cap. Since the original caps cost
money, a cheaper subsitute would make more sense for the dealer.
Right?
Mine had also the cheaper one.

Perhaps the good folks Alan has been buying from have been
replacing the rear caps that come from Pentax with cheap ones
for reasons of their own.

If you buy a brand new 50mm F1.2 A series lens, there is only one of the
cheap push-on rear caps included. How very unpleasant. I suppose I should add
that I will replace it with the appropriate Rear Lens Cap K.
