Default 16 ga. barrel weight to length ?

Recently came across a 1 frame 16 ga. with 3lbs 14 weight stamping.
I haven't before seen a 16 with this heavy of a raw weight. I am more versed on 0 frame typical weights.
The Titantic barrels look to have been cut, and now at 28" mic right at .651-.650. I don't think this constriction has much length.
The rib has a wonderful nice taper to it. The gun dates to 1905, but not in the SN&ID book and when I check against available records, it reads that none exists.
I was not able to check current weight.

I am wondering at what length they originally left Parker?

Many Thanks
Brett
