Yes, several hundred were built by Erla beginning in late 1944.

Hi,

G-10s built by WNF had short-legged tail wheels.
They had too, the large wing bumps due to the larger main wheels.
WNr in the 610xxx to 613xxx range and 770xxx range for G-10/R2s (recce version).

Hi,

In this case, R6 was the PKS 12 and those G-10/R6 were all weather fighters.

Hi,

G-10s built by Messerschmitt (WNr in the 130xxx range, only 135 built) and by Erla-Leipzig has long-legged tailwheels.
