In the old days, hundreds of tons of shotguns were made for hardware stores and the like with the name of the retailer or distributor rather than that of the actual maker. That sounds like one of those. I have no record of that name, but if it was bought in the area you are in now there may be old records of such a store.

The practice has generally died out, but store chains like Sears, Montgomery Ward, and Western Auto kept "store brand" names for many years, on guns as well as other products.
