Kind of looks like PESELY to me.

Tried to google PESELY and FESELY firearms, and searched Ebay... but got no results on either spelling.

Looks like PE&Ely to me

Probably a hardware store gun from the day. A firearm manufacturer would stamp your store name on however many guns you wanted to order

I buy and sell quite a few shotguns it's one of my hobbies besides old tractors. I run across these old single barrels all the time. I have a distant cousin that has over 30 of them right now left out of his fathers and grandfathers huge collections of firearms and he can't get rid of them. Like the other reply said they were Hardware store guns From the early 1900's to the 50's if you had the money to put up a gun manufacture would make a run of shotguns for you with your name on it. I've seen all kinds of names over the years and all kinds of quality. Some were built pretty cheap and some were pretty good but the collectability of these guns is next to nothing. I've ran across some that I could find absolutely no information on. I have read that some companies would make as few as a hundred guns if they were slow on business. I haven't seen that name before so I can't help you on that one but if you do figure out who made I would love to know.

A google images search shows an auction for a Fegely arms company Iver-Johnson shotgun . 95 dollars.

I have several old singles and as someone stated, they are dirt cheap. Many of the hardware brands were actually manufactured by Crescent Arms Co. and Ivers Johnson, H & R, or Stevens.
