Half stock smoothbore missing what was probably a bead sight. Anyone ever seen one of these before? Thanks for any help.

I believe that Hopkins & Allen made guns like that.

#1 wrong answer. #2 wrong answer is Wesson.
Any more speculation?

From your picture, it looks like a shotgun made by Remington . A description with picture can be found in Flayderman's
(5E-076.5). It cites that they were made "c. 1866 through 1870's... 20 ga. with 35" round barrel..."
