I was recently given a JP Sauer and Son (or Sohn?) shotgun (possibly a model 75C since it says that under the serial number on the underside of the barrel). The guy I got it from never shot it, it was given to him by an old hunter before he died. I did some research during my ten day waiting period and found that, of the pics I saw on other forums, most said either 12 and then 65 underneath, or 12 and then 70 underneath. The lower number being the length of the chamber in mm (65mm = 2.5"; 70mm = 2.75"). So now I don't know if this thing is chambered for 2.5" or 2.75" shells and I don't want to shoot 2.75" if it is chambered for 2.5"
I know I could try to measure the chamber, but using a cleaning rod or a wood dowel to feel where the chamber ends, and then measuring that... not sure if I want to risk blowing my face off being off by a quarter inch.
