Good gun- good deal- All 12 gauge Elsies (except some of the later hammerless LONGRANGE 3" GUNS, HAD STD. 2& 3/4" CHAMBERS. I would ask to have the locks removed by the seller, so you can check the inletting and tangs of the stock head before buying. Royal steel is nickel ordnance steel, same as Armor steel used on the comparable hammerless field grade (F) on this gun means Field grade, but of course, an outside hammer gun. Great shooters and priced waaay below other American hammer guns with Nitro proofed barrels-IMO anyway
