Deactivated US Mossberg Pump Action Shotgun

This is a US manufactured Mossberg pump action chambered in 12 bore.  Produced with a 24inch barrel it would have been used by either the military, police or specialist units. Only these bodies are permitted to have shotguns with barrels of this length. The US cops refer to these types of the shotguns as "boot or trunk" guns. The shorter barrel making them ideally suited for storage in the trunk of a US police car!! Deactivated with a working pump action.
