i'll have a look for the logo.I do remember though,this was back in '88-'89 when I was living in Chatham N.B.(A.D./Air Force base) it seemed the locals relied on the Baikal shotgun purchased from the local CDN Tire.I remember a couple fella's re-loading thier guns to almost the same speed as my Win.1200.
I would have to guess/assume that this is gun that provides affordability and puts food on the table for those less fortunate or those who prefer one shot,kinda like myself I guess.My main hunting tool for big-game is a T/C Encore.
