Biggest problem I have is that you really cannot inspect markings when they are filled with lacquer or other materials.

I'm not experienced with "K" dates. Was the process then stamping over the blued finished (which would result in halos) or after they were serialized? Things look odd around the barrel serial numbers (lighter in a broad area), and - as mentioned - no halos.

Frame is actually proud of the receiver - not shaved...

I agree - more needed and in hand inspection needed. No photos of receiver numbering or other areas like side plate.
