Good evening everyone.
I wanted to start a new thread here as to not dilute the other thread.
I purchased this gun a few years ago. It is #1 of a pair. Chokes are close to sk1 and sk2.
Interested to see where it likely was made and who might have made it.
Thanks in advance for all the help!

Paul,based on the two photos, I'd say it is an "A" grade for Original Quality. I'm fairly sure it was made by one of the larger manufacturing shops. The color and figure of the wood is very good for and "A" gun. The engraving is typical for and "A."
Nice gun. Hope you enjoy shooting it and shoot it well.

Very similar to my Holloway made gun - is there a short H prefix serial number (HXXXX) on the short rib near the lumps?

Midland, W&S, and Greener would be three of the "usual suspects." Many of the smaller shops also supplied to the trade. I've a Holloway that also looks similar to your gun. I'll drag it out and compare to your photos.
