One more thing Gerry...Every article that I've read and every specification that I've seen concerning the Parker Repro Sporting Clays Classic model states they are factory furnished with 3" chambers, yet every SCC model that I've examined (which is less than a handful) are roll-stamped on the left barrel "12-GAUGE 2 3/4", I've yet to see one marked 3". My SCC is roll-stamped 2 3/4", but the chambers do indeed measure 3" long, as do the others that I have measured. There is a forum member whose gun was stamped 2 3/4" and he measured his gun's chambers at 2 3/4"...which makes the Repros like the originals in saying---never say never when it comes to Parkers.
