Was there ever a buckling spring version in this form factor?

Yes, there's the "Space Unsaver (http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=20118.0)".

There were several PNs with various differences due to the terminals that they were designed for, and there was even one that is an M type. 1387033 is definitely the one everyone wants though since it can be easily converted via Soarer's and is CapBS.

I have one of these. It has a build quality like an F, very solid with a metal barrel plate, but it is still a rubber dome at heart.

It uses quality honeywell domes, if I recall.
Also plate mounted domes are usually rather nice. I think it's part of why everyone likes topre so much.
I think samwisekoi got one as well and liked it.
I'll have to do some looking, but if you replace the keycaps and dome sheet (with hammers / springs) you can probably make this buckling spring and save a lot of effort cutting the case of a 122-key down to size.
