Bud,
Your L.C. Smith was originally received in the inventory of Von Lengerke & Detmold of New York on July 1, 1913. The grade is recorded as "OO Field" but there is no mention of a second set of barrels. The original barrels were 28 inches. It was sold later in 1913. This information is courtesy of Griffin & Howe, Inc.
