Hoping someone can help identify the Damascus pattern on these barrels. Nitro proofed from between 1905 and 1910 from my preliminary investigation. I know nothing. Thanks for any help.

4 iron Crolle, Turkish. Best quality. Barrels built by T. Kilby?

I'm not seeing anything on the flats that I can identify as relating to Kilby. There is nothing on the tubes but serial numbers and the words BOSS.

Since "Boss" is stamped on the tubes ahead of the flats and near the short rib I'm wondering if Boss stitched the barrels themselves. Their name is where one frequently sees the initials for the outworker.
Disagreement is one of the joys of freedom.

By the time this Boss was made...CL was long out of the commercial barrel building business. The only guns with a CL, wouldve been CL guns.

I believe the barrel is 3 bar Oxford. Too open for 4 bar
