The Russian guns imported by Universal were pretty much all made by the Baikal factory.
I have a similar SXS purchased a few years later, the IZH-43.
It was about $400 new. Your gun sounds fancier than the one that I have which is field grade.
Try a search for Baikals and see if you can get a match. if you do not get a satisfactory response here, there is a forum dedicated to Russian SGs at Shotgunworld.com.
The Baikal imports were taken over by Remington as their Spartan line.
