MarketHunter:

There is no disagreement that the barrel sets both be factory. The question is whether they came from the factory originally. If the gun was ordered with both sets, it is far more rare and probably worth a premium.
As new steel barrels were readily available for Elsies, many were sent back for this fitting. It is usually marked on the steel barrels, but a letter should remove all doubt.
Best,
