Looks like a man cave thing to me.

In the seventies, there was a dealer at the Maryland Arms Collectors Association Show in Baltimore who displayed a nice Parker eight gauge lamp with a hole drilled through the breech ball for the wire. I wonder where that gun is today? It is probably someone's prized Parker eight with the hole welded up. As I recall, the price at the time was around a hundred bucks.

That would have been nice if it was a parker but how would you decide on which to committ to the remainder of its years to setting atop a pedestal.
Just would not seem right.
I am glad it is the gun it is.Still will always be way to start a conversation about double guns.
