Scotts - 4x,

In general....the receiver on a pump or semi-auto is about 2" longer than the receiver on an Over Under....

so a semi-auto with a 24" barrel ...should be about the same overall length as an Over Under with a 26" barrel...

26" semi-auto same overall length as an O/U with 28" barrels...
28" semi-auto same overall length as an O/U with 30" barrels...

No, in general if you're shooting an O/U with 28" barrels on a Trap field...most shooters will not frown at you ...( but every 2" of reduction in barrel lengths - does make the muzzle blast worse...)....

why your wife's gun is overall longer than yours --might be in the recoil pad ...don't know...but that seems odd to me.
