This is an interesting thread as well: https://www.gunboards.com/threads/us-property-savage-720.914738/ “It has a Poly Choke installed. After much discussion on whether or not the choke was installed on GI shotguns, I contacted Poly Choke. I was told that Poly Choke had a contract with the army to install their chokes on GI shotguns during the war. In fact, he said they still have the government equipment in their warehouse complete with documentation. I saw a show on the history channel on recreation for officers during WW2. There was a scene at a skeet range. All the shooters had humpback shotguns with Poly Chokes installed. My Dad also told me he shot skeet with a Poly Choke equipped shotgun when he was in the Army Air Corps.”
