That mark on the barrel flat of your SBT is the mark of Joe Scaglione, the worker who proofed your gun. See pages 78 & 79 of Walter Snyder's book The Ithaca Gun Company, From the Beginning. The 3 may be a choke marking for improved modified, but there is no choke marking on the three other Knick barrel flats I have saved pictures of. This gun was proofed by Charles Fox --

On this gun Charles August put his mark on the lug next to the grade number --
