The gun Harold is getting is one of a group of 14, consecutive. Makes you wonder......
Like everything else, 'To Each His Own'. but that 38" gun is more a curiosity to me than something I'd need to own.

Dean, my grade 2, 30" weighs 6lbs, 11 oz., so, using the old rule of thumb of 2oz per inch of muzzle end barrel material, Pug's gun should weigh 22oz more than mine, less the minuscule amount the lightning cuts amount to.
Since those cuts are behind the hinge pin, and the barrels must clearly be heavier than my gun, how could the gun balance at the pin, unless there was weight in the stock?
You have had the benefit of putting mitts on it, and my mind is just wandering, as it does this time of year, so I'm obviously overthinking it.
Hmmm. Ive seen you shoot, and now I understand your technique, though your score might improve if you try opening your eyes.
