Was a factory original 2 bbl. set with 16ga and 20ga barrels, Winchester Reproduction Parker, ever made with a beavertail forend?

It appears so. This one, while no longer available, had a BT.

If you'd like to see an A-1 Special 20/20/16 3-bbl. set with a beavertail, go here:

The barrel flat markings on the Julia 16 GA does not look like the Krieghoff barrels originally fitted to the 20 GA Repro to produce the 20/16 set.
I would guess they are those Galazan had made and fitted.

This gun doesn't have a beavertail, but take a look at the barrel flat markings on this gun's 16-ga. set of barrels. Who do you think was the maker of them?

Not Krieghoff. Probably Galazan.
The original 16 GA barrels of the Repro 20/16 sets have "Krieghoff", Proof Marks, Chokes and Set Number stamped on Barrel Flats.
