Did I get Ripped Off?

Ed -

There's nothing on the toggle except for a the serial number (which doesn't match the others), and nothing anywhere else on the gun that indicates the manufacturer. There may be some proof marks ... on the recessed area of the frame, under the bore, there's "G", a "9", an "8" and what looks like a cursive "L" ... all separated from one another. On the bottom of barrel, there's what looks like a cockeyed "9" sitting on a cresent with a set of quotation marks over it. Those are the only unique markings (excpet for the obliterated safety marking mentioned before). None of these marks seem match anything on the ID guides on this site.

This is certainly a cobbled together gun, but you'd think that I could at least identify where some of the major pieces were made. Unfortunately, I'm not having much luck
