Many europen makers did. Some will as a custom order still.

i have a 14 gauge shotgun which was made by the stevens company (American) called a "stevens tip up shotgun". i also have one paper shotshell made by remington UMC i bought at a gun show.

the gun is a single shot break open breach 32" barrel shotgun, with a large, exposed hammer, serial number 4XX.

tip ups were also made in rifle calibers. production of tip ups stopped in the 1890's.

the unique feature is that they have a very nice walnut wood stock BUT no forend wood at all so that your forward hand is actually holding the barrel itself.

years ago i remember seeing info stating that tip up shotguns were built in all gauges from 12, 14, 16, 20, 24, 32. the .410 bore (gauge) did not make it's appearance until about 1905, well after the tip up production ceased. i do not remember where i saw the info, probably in a shooters bible dated in the 1950's.
