Yes, Brett you are correct regarding the original 16-ga. Parker Repro barrels which were contracted out by Parker Reproductions to Krieghoff of Germany. I probably wasn't as clear as I could have been in my previous post to this thread where I referred to them only as being righteous.
One way to distinguish Krieghoff barrels from those supplied by Galazan is to look at the breach end, the Krieghoff's will have a band of engraving typical of the original Repros, whereas the Galazan's will be sans this engraving - unless, of course, the engraving was added later. The pic that Phil showed us above appears to be lacking this band of engraving and thus tells me that they were supplied by Galazan. There are other differences, but this is the simplest way to distinguish them apart with just a glance. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
