Winchester M12 Trench gun question

[AeroDillo]

Just out of curiousity, does anybody here know if it's possible to have a (functional) takedown gun with the added features of a trench model (barrel shroud and bayo lug) ?

I've seen T/D models with the extra hardware before, but I haven't been able to discern whether or not the piece can still be normally disassembled.

Thanks in advance.

Short answer is no.

The trench gun conversion blocks the magazine end. To take down a model 97 or 12, you have to push the takedown pin, rotate the magazine, then pull it forward in order to rotate the barrel and free the interrupted threads. The heatshield prevents this.

Okay. Thanks.

Fortunately, I have a backup plan.
