Only known? Hmmm, I've had 2, one a Steven Grant hammergun with individual stalking safeties, the other an H&H with tang mounted, above the safety.
The Grant was a Jones underlever with Perkes patent self cocking mechanism.

I'm sure there are a few out there. To me that's a big bore rifle set up, maybe they were intended as round ball guns or had another set of barrels at one time. I'm really just giving our boy George a hard time for the most part, he loves it.......

The Grant was a 16, The Holland a 12, 30" 5# gun, so I doubt it was ever barreled with anything else as it was straight stocked, 1913 mfg.
