Krieghoff K-20 Victoria
Heinrich Krieghoff Waffenfabrik · Shotgun · In Production
Also known as: K-20 Victoria
Overview
The Krieghoff K-20 Victoria is a German over/under break-action sporting shotgun purpose-built for female shooters, based on the small-gauge K-20 platform scaled down from the flagship K-80. Chambered in 20 or 28 gauge with 3-inch chrome-plated chambers, it pairs a balanced low-profile hardened steel receiver with light 30- or 32-inch soldered Parcours barrels carrying a 7mm tapered rib and side ribs. Its dedicated Victoria stock in select Turkish walnut features an adjustable comb, a tailored palm swell and distinctive checkering, while a single selective mechanical trigger adjustable for finger length and a top-tang safety complete the competition setup.

Background
The Victoria is Krieghoff's answer to the growing number of women in clay-target sports, giving the small-gauge K-20 a stock geometry and checkering designed around a female shooter's build rather than a shortened men's gun.
