It may claim to be a winchester, but the receiver and pistol grip mount look identical to my mossy 500.

yeah, that's exactly what it looks like to me in that pic. 

they are similar in contour to the win 1300/1200 though. 

then again, it's the new york press.

I took the info about the gun from this article: http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/08/14/back-at-work-harlem-store-owner-recounts-shooting/?hp

I have a moss 500, and it does look similar to the pic of what the cop is holding.  But I'm not gun pro.

500

i bet its actually the mossy.  they were sold in the PG form in a kit.  two barrels and two butts.  I bet he got that kit and left the cylinder bore barrel on with the pistol grip.  he doesn't strike me as the kind of guy to go buy a pistol grip and put it on a Winchester. 

I just can't remember a 1200 or 1300 ever being sold with a pg.  Or any other Win shotgun.

well, its interesting enough to me that it was even identified as a shotgun by the press, rather than a assault shotgun, ak-47.

Looks like a PG with folding stock.  See perpendicular piece below policeman's left hand.

if you enlarge the pic, that is actually some genuine new york city "street ooze"

Just like the news media referenced the guy outside the "rally" in Arizona as having a "military assault rifle"

apparently they have yet to figure out to be "assault" means it has a select fire option.

well you know how that goes...
