this second thread was probably to use this barrel in a remington rolling block rifle
The Danish military Krag has a barrel jacket just like the German M88 commission rifle and the Belgian M89 Mauser. Imho the second thread was used to screw on this jacket. Maybe it's a worn miltary barrel simpply bored out smooth. Or using the barrel jacket on a sporterised rifle allowed the use of the military stock without extensive work on the barrel inletting.
