I’m betting on the Acme barrels being the original barrels or an undocumented additional factory fitted set.
...IMHO
I have a DHE 28 that TPS and the serialization book say originally had Titanic 28” 28 gauge barrels but it letters with 24” 28 gauge Damascus barrels, and that’s what it wears today. Just sayin...
