None that I know of
Wouldn't be too much fun shooting it anyway. I do however have a T-C Contender with a 28 ga custom bbl. Shoots ok too. But it does let ya know ya touched her off. I do have a 12 ga double that had been cut off to 12-13 inches. Nice gun too. It is a Baker Sidelock with ejectors. Wood is good and it shot just fine till I mashed the bbls so they couldn't be shot. Was considering haveing the bbls replaced in the monoblock...till I figured out the cost! WOW...even doing it myself!!
 Kicked pretty bad unless you were expecting it

skeet,
I was going to say that...LOL. Minihuntur, Good question; why do you ask? Are you looking for a 12 gauge handgun? I doubt you would want to fire such an arm twice! I am sure there are sawed-off 12 gauge single and double guns around the country. Keep in mind that a shotgun barrel shorter than 18 inches is a "Firearm" under the 1938 National Firearms Act and subject to registration with the Treasury Department and a $200 transfer tax stamp. If someone saws off a shotgun barrel on their own, that is a 10-year felony if convicted. Adam

You got it
That company is related to Remington in some manner. I once had a few cases of 20 ga shells in Rem boxes that were made in Mex land. Most of 'em even went off
I even hit something with most of 'em too They also at one time made loaded ammo for the 44 auto mag. Was so much easier than makin cases for that gun. Also still glad it was sold. Finicky gun for certain.

You would know they are redesigning their website right now. A 12 guage cut down would be heck on the wrists, but it would be heck on the other end too. BTW for the shotgun/pistol cross enthusiasts don't forget the lemat revolver http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LeMat_Revolver GoodOlBoy

There was a lot of different guns
I know there was more than one multi shot gun out there. There was a Walch 12 shot Navy pistol 36 cal. I had all kinds of guns at one time or another. Who can name the first pump action cartridge repeating shotgun on the market?? What was the first US made Military rifle? What was the first practical breechloading rifle made in any quantity? Who invented it and approx when?

The last question is the hardest
The first practical breechloading rifle was the Ferguson invented by a Major (Patrick??) Ferguson who was killed at the Battle of Kings Mountain in Georgia during the Revolutionary war. He was of course British and the rifle was a revolution in itself. The stodgy British military Hierarchy of course disdained a rifle that could be fired every 10 seconds and lost the revolution. The rest I will leave to be answered.
