I have seen more than one old gun that had a mis-shaped chamber. The 38-40 rifle/pistol cartridge comes to mind. They often blow the shoulder forward just like yours. I suggest this may be the correct cartrige identification, despite the mis-located shoulder.

Yeah, i start to think so also. At some time thay cleaned the chamber by removing some metal.

The guns I have examined were made that way. I don't know why.
