That is kind of strange why would the SS want a round incompatible with the rounds the Wehrmacht tested

I expect the SS wanted its own equipment in order to force the Wehrmacht to follow their standard, rather than being forced by the Wehrmacht to follow the Wehrmacht's standard.

I can only remember chrome electroplating of large calibre guns, it is fairly expensive. Really, any self-loading rifle will be more expensive than a standard bolt-action piece.

Go for it, figuring out the details of such a thing was down the line for me.
As for chroming interior parts, had the thought some russian rifles did that historically, just poked about and can't find that info- I am likely misremembering.
The thought had been that is useful for limiting fouling and corrosion. For the Dutch, the access to the South Afrikan chromium sources and extensive tropical commitments make the expense less unreasonable vs. need. I may look for the precedent again later.

Ok a new idea since Persia is already using the MKMS, how about adapt it to the 8x35?

I'm having a bit of a problem with the pistol grip, honestly. If you want to use a folding stock a la M1A1 Paratrooper, that's fine; otherwise I think the standard stock is probably going to be used. Not even all SMGs used pistol-grip stocks at this point.
