Mike thanks, wasn't sure how to post from Imgur. When I used Photbucket it put the picture in the post. I will remember that. Again thanks.

Good, now as to chamber, I would say 20 gauge and have been mostly fired with 2 3/4 ammo. May be a carbon ring in the chamber. Clean the chamber REALLY well and then try a 3" cartridge again to see if it clunks I would say the 75mm chamber is a good tip. My Krieghoff K-32 does have 75 mm 28 gauge chambers but other 28 gauge 3" guns are not common. Mike

Your shell was .007 larger than your chamber. Either a tight chamber, a dirty chamber or a bit oversized shell. Did you try a Winchester shell? Some of the Remington GunClub shells run a bit oversized and the steel rim will not just move enough to seat.

I'd say it's of Asian origin, purely based on the engraving. I cannot say why but I know it when I see it.

I've measured Gun Club shells at SAAMI max head diameter right out of the new box.

Hammergun thanks. The chamber was measured with a telescoping gage, I put it in at an angle and then tightened and moved it to the rim of the chamber next to the extractor and it measured .691-692 a few times. I used a Shurshot Remington hull and like I stated that miked .698. My friend tried new RST 20 ga. hulls and Winchesters. The chamber is clean, the hull went in smoothly till it came to the brass and stopped.

Mike, thanks for the link to Shotgun World. That guns looks identical to my friends, except no mention of "My Luck" on it. The "My Luck" gun might have had nicer engraving and I think he said a nickel finish. The gun shown on Shotgun World also had 3 pins on the side of the receiver, this one has only 2. The breech ball is cut the same on both. One with the three pins could be a little newer. Gun weighs 5 lbs 15.4 ozs. with those long 32" barrels. I too believe that FC could be Full Choke going by my measurements.
Mike I also noticed that the one gun posted from Photobucket and hard to see, but showed the barrel with a single lug, my friends has a double lug. That gentleman that started the post also stated "the barrel has a short swamped rib that serves to line up the front bead." This one has the same type rib as the ones in the picture from Caerlonie (New Zealand)
