Who told you it was rare? The seller?

Labeled at 3”? Parker did not mark their guns with chamber length. So a gun marked as 3” is an immediate red flag that it was altered to that state.

I do not know what you paid, and I am not asking. And it really does not matter.
But if it was advertised as a V grade and you got a trojan, it was misadvertised and you didnt know better to tell the difference from the start. It may be best to take advantage of that return policy, if there was one, and get out from under it.

That being said... 2 frame barrels are usually very stout (especially on a trojan) and can take the chambers being lengthened to 3” without a problem. It is best to get the gun checked out if you do keep it, but i would not think you would have any major concerns with safety due to chamber length.
