Big Arnold aka; The Governator, used a old Winchester brand lever action pump 12ga that his cyborg character swipes off a biker in Terminator II(1991).
As posted, John M Browning R&D a lever action 12ga meant for military/trench use, but it was not as popular as the regular pump shotguns of the era.
In T2 they had a wierd way of cocking the 12ga lever too. I think it was to be cool.
