If the stock book is the only record I have, I list the weight shown on the letter if I can read it. If the stock book is missing but I have the entry in the order book I put down "the requested weight". Sometimes the order book will give the weight such as 7 1/2 pounds or sometimes it may say 7 to 7 1/2 pounds and if you were to weight the gun, it may be 7 pounds 4 ounces. That's why I say "requested weight". It just depends. The stock book is more accurate in that it lists the pounds and ounces such as 7 pounds, 8 ounces. There are some large orders in the order book and they don't even list the weight or stock dimensions. These large orders can be multiple pages with each page 40 S/N's. Guess that was too much data to enter. Hope this explains it.

BTW, I do the same with chokes. If I can read the pellet count in the stock book, that goes in the letter. If I can't and the order book entry show how they want it choked, than I put "the requested chokes were RH xxx, LH xxx.
