Wasn't this the Armalite survival gun?

As I recall (vaguely: a friend bought one to kyak through the Arctic
Circle) it had an over-under barrel, with a .22 bullet and a 410
shotgun shell. It packed into its own stock.

You have two firearms mixed up. The Armalite AR-7 is the one that takes apart
and stores in its own stock. Mine is made by Charter arms and is in 22LR. If
memory serves the current maker is Henry.

James Bond used one in Goldfinger (I think)

The other one is the M-6 scout which had a .410 over a 22 hornet and folded in
half. The current maker is Springfield.
