Are the barrels damascus? What is the grade? Are you sure of the DOM?
'BD' if a commonly found mark on pre-1913 No. 0 guns, and possibly that of Bauduin Doyen, a Nessonvaux damascus barrel and gun maker. They became part of the Syndicat des Fabricants de canons de fusils de la Vesdre in 1907.
'WR' was probably William Read & Sons, Boston
