Are the Damascus Barrels fitted to the Trojan? If so, the dolls head rib extension would have had to been removed or at least modified.
Being your Trojan was made in 1914, it most likely has the rounded rib extension.
Post pics if you can.

The Damascus barrels are surely shootable with low pressure shells if the bores are good and the wall thickness checks out.
Also, check the chamber length as well.

Fluid steel barrels would have been introduced for the New smokeless powders being introduced at the turn of the century.
