Default gun Vs Letter

the letter arrived today, the hammer gun hasn't yet

but - the seller says 32" twist barrels (i have to assume he can measure) the letter says 30" twist - the number is not in the serialization book

there is no serial number on the barrels- the rib is correct, i think the serial numbered barrels came shortly after this one was made 1887/89 depending on the home page or letter

just trying to pin it down within the inspection period, i wasn't expecting a composed gun -

any thoughts, is this a common discrepancy or a red flag
