Two-barrel sets with the second set fitted later seem to be more common than guns that left Meriden originally as two-barrel sets. My gun left Meriden in 1889 as a rather heavy Damascus barrel 12-gauge on a 2-frame. At some pont after 1918, when the barrel address changed from Conn. to Ct. U.S.A., it got a set of 32-inch Vulcan Steel 20-gauge barrels and a second forearm. The Brothers P also fitted a new bolt and the post 1910 bolt plate on both sets of barrels.
