Default Who did this work?

These are the markings on the 28 gauge barrels on a GH. Anyone recognize the markings or have any idea who may have done the rebarrelling?

Who used stars to indicate points of choke?

I've seen them on the Smith & Wesson Elite Gold side-by-side. AKUS in Huglu, Turkey was the manufacturer, who now makes the Dickinson Arms Plantation and Estate models.

Yes. It seemed I have heard of someone doing that but can't remember who.

The fore end lug is from a VH 20 gauge but the barrels are non Parker

The stars would not be unusual on a European gun. I seem to recall seeing a Parker with Italian-made replacement barrels.

But there are stars on only one barrel, at least on my phone. What about the other barrel if that is the choke marking.

So, it appears to have 1/4 choke in the left barrel and 3/4 choke in the right???... odd.
