Must say that has some lovely wood on it

Thanks. Yes, it isn’t bad. It was a good ( and lucky ) find; bit of a sleeper. It is choked full and full and I really enjoy using it on sporting layouts, and had a cracking day out with it at Coniston just prior to lockdown.   The Grouse butts was great fun; those birds were just smudges of dust! Huge smiles from me and mate as he just had to have a go too!  Brilliant fun! 😀image.jpeg.11fc4cd5f30f93379696143a81b9a5a4.jpegimage.jpeg.958d8f4d9f25c180de1fdd9d4e7511e2.jpeg

My K80 parcour is proofed for HP steel. As for the non chromed barrels. I wouldn't worry too much. The chambers are chromed but not the tubes. I use mine in all weathers.  They do need a scrub and an oiled mop through them after a day in the field.

Not so long ago Krieghoff had complaints about spent cases not ejecting fully after firing. Eventually they started to chrome the chambers to get over this.  Some of the earlier K80s will still be suffering with this frustrating problem. 

Now that would be annoying on a hot peg!
