By special order only. "Three-inch" chambers were not a 'standard' chambering but Parker Bros. is known to have made a number of twenty-gauge guns chambered for the three-inch shell. These chambers generally measure 2 7/8" - the practice of chambering a set of barrels 1/8" shorter than the shell they were designed to shoot carried into their "three-inch" guns as well.
