"M V T. ? is the makers sign - V for Vapens, means arms"...

So...Gunwolf, Vapens means arms in German and stil means style in German - so there could be a German connection here, on this shotgun - a sort of English / Prussian shotgun or...
like it has been suggested before simply a Japanese manufacturer copying an English model and coming up with a variety of European look alike marks?
By the way I looked at several Webbley & Scott shotguns and even though there are similarities - it was certainly not a revelation... I found more of a connection with the William Evans like the photos posted above. If it was a W. Evans it would have been manufactured 1901 / 1902...
