Without someone to measure your bores and chokes with a micrometer, your best bet to determine the originality of your Trojan is a PGCA letter, $40 for PGCA members. If it turns out to be an original 26" gun, it will be worth hundreds more than a cut gun. Some original guns have very little if any blank area at the end of the rib.

P grade guns with modern steel barrels are desired variants by many people. If the stock is original then the police probably ought to be looking for you.

The chambers were cut 1/8" shorter than the length of the fired shell to be used, in the belief that with the paper shells and fibre wads of the day, a better gas seal was created. |

No you didn't get burned - I think you did very well. Dean explained very well why the chambers were 2 5/8. Sherman Bell did test on short chambers with longer shells and you ain't gonna hurt a thing by using 2 3/4" shells in your guns. Maybe up the pressures by 500psi. That's why many of us reload - to keep pressures down with in reason - or buy low pressure shells from someone like RST. Have fun shooting em.
