It looks like an aid to sighting. Maybe the gun was used with slug ammo or buck shot.

My best guess would be they are for slugs too. They are too far back, too close to the eye, to be used to compensate for flying birds. I wonder what the group size would be at 35 yards with slugs.

I used to have a Remington model 10A military trench gun that had that setup except the rear beads were near the back end of the receiver. I'm pretty sure they were added by a previous owner though.

I saw a nice Greener at the Baltimore show last year with the same setup. Two ivory beads at the breech end. It wouldn't stop me from buying an otherwise nice gun.

I have seen this on an nice Ithaca years ago an the owner said they were lead pins. I purchased the Trojan well before that with a broken butt stock, looked like the previous owner had used it for a combination duck gun / boat paddle. It is choked full/full os I haven't fired slugs in it. Jim Gray marked barrels and really good even patterns.
