British slang, where Lock is a bolt, which means lock & load that we often hear in war films. Stock is the butt. Smoking barrels are barrels that have just been fired.

Lock, Stock and Two smoking Barrels - marijuana, money and shotguns

Lock is black, then in marijuana. Stock means money. There are also two shotguns. The story revolves around these three things. The marijuana was finally taken away by "Snow White", and the money was taken away by Big Chris (that's the thug) and his son. Shotgun... I don't know what

happened in the end... These two explanations are also interlinked. I don't know if Gerich made up the story based on the name or thought the name based on the story.
