    Kolar AAA sporting tube set with Nasco All American 2 barrel with tube set case. These tubes were fit in a 30” Krieghoff k80 barrel but may fit others. You will need to confirm. Tube sets have 2 SKT, IC, M and F chokes. All necessary tools to remove and install tube sets and choke wrenches for all gauges is included. Barrel visible in one of the pics is not included. Excellent condition. Offered at $1750. No trades. Thanks for taking a look and good shooting, Rey

    These will generally fit a .740 bore barrel, but Kolar uses long forcing cones and the forcing cones will most likely need to be lengthened in the barrel to accommodate these. Been there done that several times. Even factory long forcing cones are usually not long enough. The only factory barrel I've had luck with Kolars going right in are Blaser

    I tried them in 3 different k80 barrels I have that are completely unmolested as they came from Krieghoff. They fit perfectly and neither are overbored to .740 or have extended forcing cones. However, I am not guaranteeing that they will slip straight in to yours and this is an obvious factor the buyer has to take in consideration when saving such an incredible amount of money compared to new. Good shooting, Rey

    Kolar states on their website that they lengthen the forcing cones and my luck going from Krieghoff barrel to barrel has been different than yours. Also my tubes made for Krieghoff will fit other 740 barrels with forcing cones lengthened as in Optima barrels. 740 is standard for Krieghoff even the 32s. Just saying

    Bottom line buying tubes fitted for any gun other than yours is always a gamble.

    Another factor with these is Kolar will no longer service these tubes.

    Kolar will not service their own tubes?

    Not these old ones. They made me buy a whole new set for a broken ejector. No ejectors, no chambers, no choke tubes

    I contacted Kolar regarding servicing their older tubes, this is the reply I received.

    Happy Thursday!

    This is in regards to old tubes that have long throw ejectors which Kolar no longer makes.

    We do not have extractors available for repair of those older tubes.

    There are some tube sets that can be changed to the new extractor style, but not all.

    If you need further assistance, please call or email.

    Thank you!

    Some people have to be the dumbest of imbeciles to mistreat tube-sets to need so much work. I’ve been using tube sets from Briley and Kolar for over 35 years and have never needed any type of repairs done to them. Well, now that the 2 self appointed gurus of American Trap Shooter have voiced their un-requested opinion on something that neither is obviously intending to buy (in violation of forum rules) maybe they can go play with each other and continue their entertainment. Just like buying a used car out of warranty you run some risks. Most of us that have a pair understand that. Good shooting, Rey

    Thought everyone would get a kick out of the forum police telling me I had to guarantee fitting on my for sale ad. Pissed in my pants reading it. Enjoy!

    Mr. MDavid
    You shouldn’t have posted your first post on this thread, period. If you bothered to read the rules, you would have seen that the seller is correct, if you’re not part of the sale, keep quiet on the public page. Bad move and you have just been warned. Don’t ever do it again. The gentleman that posted the response from Kolar WAS trying to help but that post also should have been via a PM
    Mr. MDavid, if you wanted to “help” the seller you should have sent him a PM telling him about your experience with said product.

    The only replies I want to see on this listing going forward will be from the OP bumping his ad, answering questions about the item, or someone interested in purchasing the item.

    If any party wants a little vacation, keep up the sarcastic posts. And I mean, ANYONE.
