The '''Stevens Model 520''' is an American pump-action shotgun designed by John Browning (note the distinct "hump" in the receiver, not unlike that of the [[Browning Auto-5]]). The shotgun was originally produced by the J Stevens Arms & Tool Company from 1909 to 1916 after Browning sold them the patent. In 1916, J Stevens Arms & Tool Company was purchased by [[Savage Arms]], who manufactured an updated version of the shotgun until 1939. During World War II, the Model 520 was offered as a combat shotgun, under the desgination Model 520-30, to the US military. These guns are fitted with a 20-inch barrel, heat shield, and bayonet lug like other US military "Trench Guns".
