Local Gun Shop selling 12 ga 2.5" shells?

It is not just the length of the shells, but the chamber pressure produced by the shells.
It may seem counterintuitive, but the short 1 3/4" shells can still produce chamber pressures higher than some classic firearms were designed to withstand.

Play it safe and spend the few dollars more to buy the proper shells for your classic.
It is much cheaper than damaging your firearm or a visit to the hospital.
