I see this mount listed all the time. Does it adapt to EOS without problems?

I'm not interested in this lense but it has the mount i"m talking about.

It's a rangefinder lens of too short a register distance for the EOS - probably max distance will be a couple of yards.
That seller certainly knows how to charge.

I confirm. Rangefinder lens.
Good lens, but overpriced. Not useable with EOS.

Is this the pentacon 6 mount out of curiosity?

Yes, but from what everyone says its only good for close up or macro.

I'm just curious if that is a pentacon 6 mount in the link.

No Ron, it's a Contax rangefinder mount.

Thank you, but I think you are missing the point that it is not M42 but a contax/kiev rangefinder lense. Thank you for the link.
