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.
