Mills, it looks like your gun was likely purchased and used as a target gun, but in case you find more information that suggests it was a game gun, there are some books that can give you some sense of the game opportunities in the area surrounding LA. The T. Van Dyke book is especially informative regarding the locale. They are all interesting reads.
