After closer inspection of the barrels I noticed on each barrel under the forearm a small P.B. inside a shield. I'm guessing this is Parker Brothers mark indicating these barrels were made by them. I don't see any Birmingham Proof Marks on them. There are some also interesting marks on the barrels and lug. There is in the letters J J, what appears to be an omega proof mark, and 3 J.L. on the barrel lug.
The barrels weight 3lbs even with just a little bit of choke in each barrel. Very similar to your set of barrels Art on your 1874 Lifter.
