    As Dick has said, never say never. Supposedly all 20 ga were built on FW frames, funny though I have read that there are a couple of .410 built on a Regular frame, who figures.
    MarkQue, the 3" chambers could have been special ordered, do the barrels have the re-inforced splinter? Does your Longrange have the same, but that is built on a Regular frame. I've seen guns marked Wildfowl on the barrel lug, and Chambered 3 Inches in oval but they didn't have the re-inforced splinter. The ones that I have and have seen stamped Longrange on the lug have the re-inforced splinter, who knows this is what makes it fun.
