Several makers experimented with cast actions . Churchill for example , later BSA's and Ruger shotguns appear to be all cast and many Italian and Spanish makers use a lot of cast parts .Trigger guards ,trigger plates ,triggers , tailpipes and forend irons have all been cast. Modern Miroku's also seem to have a lot of cast parts .Single barrels of all makes were cast .I once had several hammer gun actions that had been cast ,that is rough un-machined castings of hammer gun bodys I don't know who they were made for as I bought a job lot of old junk at an auction that these were with it .
