Unfamiliar barrel marking - School me!

The stamping is "Bo.30" indicating that the barrel was Austrian made Boler Steel. It's not uncommon on 1913 and 1914 P08's.

Thanks George, that was quick. I'll post some more pics of these neat ol' hog-leg when I actually take possession (Gunbroker transaction).
