All of the 26" guns were 23/4" only.All 28" are 3".I really don't know why they did it that way.Seems t me that it would have been more cost effective to make all 12s 3" and just shoot shorter shells if you choose to.

John, we know that the Sporting Clays Classic model are 12-ga. guns with 28" barrels. They are stamped with just "12 GAUGE 2 3/4" on the left barrel. The two I own (one is NIB unfired) do have 3" chambers and all paper (brochures and write-ups) that I'm aware of state they have 3" chambers. Others, too; have reported their SCCs as having 3" chambers, but there is one forum associate that measured his SCC with a chamber gauge at 2 3/4". Do you have any explanation why the factory stamped this particular model at only 2 3/4"?
