Sako is a firearms manufacturer in Finland. Bofors is a Swedish company, and was probably contracted to manufacture the barrels for that rifle. If you're looking for a magazine (not clip) for the rifle, try some of the related links posted at the bottom.
Also note that the rifle is probably chambered for the .22 Hornet cartridge.

Where is the serial number located on a harrington and richardson topper model 158?
IF it HAS a serial number, it will be stamped on the receiver (frame) usually on the left side (as you are holding the shotgun).
However, serial numbers were not required by law on shotguns and rifles until the 1968 Gun Control Act. Prior to that most low cost firearms were not sequentially numbered, due to the cost to the maker. It is not illegal to own a firearm without a serial number, but it IS illegal to remove a serial number, or possess a gun whose serial number has been removed.
no it is illegal
That is incorrect. Here is exactly what the ATF 'Federal Firearms Regulations Reference Guide' (ATF P 5300.4) says:
(B9) May a nonlicensee ship a firearm by carrier?
A nonlicensee may ship a firearm by carrier to a resident of his or her own state or to a licensee in any state. A common or contract carrier must be used to ship a handgun. In addition, Federal law requires that the carrier be notified that the shipment contains a firearm and prohibits common or contract carriers from requiring or causing any label to be placed on any package indicating that it contains a firearm. [18 U. S. C. 922( a)( 2)( A) and 922( e), 27 CFR 178.31]
B8) May a nonlicensee ship a firearm through the U. S. Postal Service?
A nonlicensee may mail a shotgun or rifle to a resident of his or her own state or to a licensee in any state. Handguns are not mailable. A common or contract carrier must be used to ship a handgun. A nonlicensee may not transfer any firearm to a nonlicensed resident of another state. The Postal Service recommends that longguns be sent by registered mail and that no marking of any kind which would indicate the nature of the contents be placed on the outside of any parcel containing firearms.
'Antique' firearms need not be shipped to a licensed dealer. These can be shipped directly to the buyer. An antique firearm is a firearm built in or before 1898, or a replica thereof. The exact ATF definition of an antique firearm is:
Antique firearm. (a) Any firearm (including any firearm with a matchlock, flintlock, percussion cap, or similar type of ignition system) manufactured in or before 1898; and (b) any replica of any firearm described in paragraph (a) of this definition if such replica (1) is not designed or redesigned for using rimfire or conventional centerfire fixed ammunition, or (2) uses rimfire or conventional centerfire fixed ammunition which is no longer manufactured in the United States and which is not readily available in the ordinary channels of commercial trade.
How do you make the double barrel shotgun buzz bee toy shoot both of the bullets at the same time?

There are several gun manufacturers in Brazil; Rossi is a thepremiere one, but a 12 gauge shotgun is most likely to be a Boito. My recent 12 double bought at a gun show for $275 has a barrel made in Troy Michigan. It is tight in spite of its age. Many net comments on these guns bash them as K-mart cheapies, but usually follow up with "but they still work" after all this time. Lets face it we all can't afford a $2,500 Fox or a $6,000 Parker.

Is the maverick 88 better than the mossberg 500?
Not "better". Not worse, though, either. Both are functionally the same gun. Both are identical except for the location of the safety. The 500 is on top where your thumb can trip it....the Mav 88 is on the trigger guard where your finger works it. Neither is "better" unless you just happen to like one location more than the other.
