Likely your gun was fitted with Repro barrels to make it "safe to shoot" as more of a precautionary measure. Or maybe the Damascus barrels are in fact unsafe. Best to check them out.
It is really good that you have the original barrels with the gun still and if they are good to shoot, then even better. So there is no value loss to the gun and you have the Repro barrels to shoot all the modern ammo you want.
