Husqvarna in Sweden and Nagant Brothers in Liege, Belgium, probably made more rolling block shotguns than came out of Ilion, during the E. Remington & Sons years.

Remington Arms Co. made two versions briefly in the early 1890s, the No. 1 Shotgun, a sporting style gun with "fine walnut stock" and shotgun style buttplate costing $13.50. The No. 2 Shotgun, made from military rifle parts, with a rifle-style buttplate costing $10. Both were 20-gauge, available with thirty- or thirty-two-inch blued barrels. The No. 1 was discontinued after 1892 and the No. 2 the following year when Remington Arms Co. introduced their Model 1893, No. 3 Single-Barrel Shotgun. (the above from Roy Marcot's book)
