From what information I have they were made for Embassy Guards
I do believe so, they have a item number XM7653 and a contract number M67230-87-M-0222
XM would be for a prototype and the contract number shows it was given in 1987 so all said and done probably...

Non- Military
Any particular reason of why you think they're military
What is the opinion on these shotguns do you think they're military or law enforcement/ para- military
I have my opinion of them but I would like to hear some other opinions

I also have two fixed stock guns with bayonet adapter and one folder with bayonet adapter
Awhile back I picked up a nice original and correct OHARNG 870 riot gun with an 20" barrel with bead sight without the bayonet adapter and the extended magazine for a very reasonable price
It has...

It looks like a 6 row Winchester bayonet adapter
No mine are standard commercial grade riot guns with blued finish and checkered butt stock and fore end with a rubber recoil pad and bright bolt
Rubber padded butt plate and standard length mag tube just a 1960's vintage Winchester commercial 1200 riot gun the only thing different is the metal inventory tag on the pistol grip I'll try to send...
I have a pair of Texas Army National Guard Winchester M1200 they are plain commercial riot guns nothing special no markings other than the factory markings but they do have a metal inventory tag on...
Back in the sixties many of the surplus hand guards were modified by a few companies for law enforcement use they also modified surplus M-7 grenade launchers for use on the adapters to launch tear...
If it's a trench gun where's the rear sling swivel I couldn't see one or even the inlay for one. No.1 look and see if the serial numbers match on the receiver and barrel extension No.2 look to see if...
