Comparing the pics to the ones in the books I have, it looks like a nickel Camper's Companion to me. It has the right front sight, the right forend shape and what appears to be the correct 20" barrels.

Does the buttplate open for ammo storage? Oh, and be careful cleaning the nickel finish. Anything that removes copper can work its way under the nickel and eat the copper layer that's applied to the steel first to get the nickel to bond to the gun.

All I know about the pistol grip and gun case is what I've read in the books. Your gun appears to fit the description, but there's always a chance Savage sold that gun at some point without the accessories.
