The top and bottom ribs are correct. The breach band engraving is Parker. The address line is consistant with Damascus. I assume that the barrel flat markings are correct.
Parker barrels under C Grade were only polished to around 320 grit.Many refinishers belielve they are improving the blue job by polishing to much higher grits and removing original marks. The experts look for those marks when judging a blue job.
When Damascus is polished to 600 grit or above it becomes difficult to see any trace of the patterns . This may be the case with your barrels.
