Default 3 piece barrels?

Take a look at this monster. I clearly see sleeve lines forward of the chamber but it also appears to have another set of joints just forward of the fore arm Say it ain't so! https://www.gunbroker.com/item/1192279935

The breech end is clearly Damascus and stamped so on the right barrel flat. The rib says Titanic Steel which wasn't introduced until 1897 and that is an 1892 gun judging by the serial number.
Screw-in chokes though...???
Restocked in California claro it looks like.... Think I'll pass.

I disagree Edgar. You can see the forward part of the BTFE on either side of the barrels in 9 of 19.
