    I would guess that what you have is a .410 reworked with sleeved barrels to take .357 (Magnum?) pistol cartridges.

    Winchester made a rifled version of the M21 double in something like .44-40 and maybe someone wanted to recreate that in an affordable platform.

    It does look like to have been sleeved is it possible that it could be a special order rifle ? I don't know if they do something like that or not

    The fact that the .410 has been X'd out and it was restamped .357 tells you it was converted after it left the factory.
