The engraving pattern is very similar to the arabesque pattern Merkel used on their 203s and other older guns that did not have game scenes. The cocking dogs are also very similar to what is on my 1963 Merkel 203.

The O/U dogs are another beast all together.

Maybe this is our Addison Stillwell:

I'll bet H.N. Scott was an associate of Henry Vogt & Addison Stillwell or at the very least a contemporary.
