My unfounded opinion on this gun is that some well off sport bought it new and later wanted it embellished . I also believe the sport hunted in AR , MS or LA for waterfowl the guns 30” F&F . I also believe at some point the sport gave it to someone possibly the guy I got it from’s grandfather . I doubt that this guys grandfather bought it based on the fact that I asked the fellow how he ended up in Virginia and he told me he had moved here looking for work . “Generally” all the well heeled folks I know or have met from the Deep South didn’t move for work . Anyway that’s just my opinion .
