I hear so many different stories about the chamber length of the Winchester Model 12, 12 guage. Some say the early Model 12's had a short chamber, not long enough for a 2 3/4" shell. Some say only the 20 guage shotguns had the short chamber. Does anyone really know? What is the true facts?

  I saw a Winchester Model 12 barrel for sale. The barrel had Super-Speed and Super-X stamped on the barrel. It also had 2 3/4 stamped on the barrel, but 2 3/4 looked to be added. Was the Super-Speed barrels 3-inch chamber?

  I have Super Speed ammo in 2-3/4".
  
  I don't believe that I would ignore the 2-3/4" stamping.
