My guess would be that this is indeed a later imitation. I've seen a couple of mentions of "multi barrel goose guns" which I am going to guess that this is. The fact that this is a "taken down shotgun" format makes me believe it probably would have gone in a nice sporting case at some point.
There is an article on these guns in "The Field" magazine titled "A seven-barrel ‘goose’ rifle", which I unfortunately can't access without a subscription but it shows what looks an example of a gun that looks quite similar in style to the one you showed.
