That is nice field gun. Reminds me of Henri Pieper BLNE with Baynard? steel barrels I looked over. That one had blackened receiver neat third fastener/slide type fastening and screw through wood behind receiver to prevent stock splitting at the tang. Yours has much nicer wood the other gun had plain light colored Walnut w/o much figure which I was told by another member was French. It was similar to what is found on knockabout field grade Darnes and Brownings from 1960s.
