Cool design. The oval muzzle is Obviously an attempt to provide a hrizontal dispersion of shot. Modern shotgun muzzle adapters/chokes on militarty/police shotguns I recall, designed to produce a similar spread produced variable results.

The sights I would guess were there as a suggestion of where the pellets might wander if they flt like it. The external safety is a useful addition to keep them from doing their journey in the direction of the owner.
