Possible, perhaps, but I don't think so.

There is a comparison possible with a Mauser contract for Serbia (Mauser, being the daugher company of DWM, was subjected to the same rules). Since Mauser had already delivered rifles to Serbia before the cartel agreement, they were allowed, through Steyr, to deliver an additional amount of some 32,000 rifles to Serbia during the cartel period.

Since DWM had already delivered to Bulgaria before the agreement, it is safe to assume that if DWM did deliver to Bulgaria between 1907-1914, they followed the same process as Mauser: i.e. delivery with full support of Steyr.

Of course, Steyr would be compensated for the transactions.
