On my 1992 IBM Model M most of the key caps are removable but some are not.
Notably, wider keys such as Backspace, Enter and the big + on the numeric
pad don't have removable caps. They're like the Unicomp Wide Keys.

Unicomp still sells replacement caps (

with some spares they'll dump dirt cheap or free.
AFAIK, the key caps that Unicomp sells are the monolithic cap & plunger
that
their keyboards use, not the two-part keys that the real Model M
keyboards use. (For those not aware, the Model M key cap is separate from
the plunger - the key cap is _literally_ just a cap on top of a smaller key
form that's got the plunger molded in.)
