Husqvarna possibly.
I think that is just pitting from years of blackpowder use since there is nothing on the back besides some old glue and what looks like JB Weld...Possibly welded plugs there and then filed flat... it does look like there are rings/depressions where breech holes were. Its possible it was welded and filed to make a non functional display/movie piece

Very helpful! Thanks! Any idea of source of ignition? Pan fired and the mechanism long gone? Any idea of the period of manufacture? 1800's?Agree this is a Belgian shotgun. The Perron mark, the E.L.G. are both Belgian. The crown M is the initial of an inspector.
Back when this was made, there were very many smaller manufacturers of small arms, particularly in Belgium. It might be difficult to narrow it down to a particular maker.
