It is a heck of a 12 gauge on a 3 frame with 32” barrels weighing in at 10 pounds.
Here the original thread when I first got the gun, I have decided to leave the gun as is. Looking through the pictures makes me want to go shoot it the gun this weekend:

Thanks for the pictures and sharing the threads, Jay! That's a cool gun, I thought one of my 12 gauges had heavy barrels at #4 14 oz.
