6 pound barrels?
Bill; the photo is no longer up, but that 6 did not appear to be in the proper spot to be unstruck weight. I just checked a Dam 3 "light ten" on a two frame (DH). It has a 5 in that spot; finished weight is 4 4 to make an 8 1/2 pound gun. Perhaps single digit unstruck weights were stamped a little further left.
That 6 pound unstruck weight would have produced a 9 1/2 pound gun.
Best, Austin
