Describes the elusive and little-known
"Trench Shotgun" and all other combat shotguns used by U.S. military forces.
"U.S. military models 97 and 12 Trench
and Riot Guns, their parts, markings [and] dimensions [are examined] in great detail... a basic source of information for collectors." says C.R. Suydam, Gun Report.
All U.S. combat shotguns are examined
and described part-by-part by serial number range. Winchester Model 97 and Model 12 trench and riot guns are described fully by serial number range. In addition, military trench and riot guns manufactured by Remington, Ithaca, Savage, Stevens and Mossberg are also described, complete with factory and Ordnance Department markings, serial number ranges, finishes and special points of identification. Combat shotguns in use through the Vietnam War to today are also described.
