I have a winchester Model 12 hunting shotgun I want to convert to a WW2 look-a-like Trench Gun.

I havent been able to find detailed specs on the original Trench Gun and I was hoping someone would know the barrel length, mag capacity, ect as well as where I could find a heat sheild/bayonet attachment for the barrel. I have checked marstar but they are all sold out of their shotgun accessories

any help and direction you can give me is much apprichated.

Thanks
 
The barrel length was 20 inches. There are 3 small divots in the end of the barrel to allow the bolts to pass through for bayonet lug. I was looking for a original bayonet lug and heatshield a while back but it was close to impossible to find one. The only copy I ended up finding was at numrich. They have one on there for sale under there model 12's. The mag capacity was the same as they are now just unplugged and they were all parkerised and not that it matters but there was a U.S stamp on the side of the reciver as well as a explosive ordinace stamp. O with flames if I remember correctly.

Hope this helps.

EDIT: Numrich heatsheild and bayonet lug is 111.35 + tax which I think is a good price.
