Bill, I came across a couple of mentions of 3 frame 16s when I searched the forum. There was your 28", and I think a DH with longer barrels was mentioned by someone in the same thread as having been seen. I can't search the archive section. This VH is 2.51" across the breach balls, the same as a standard 3 frame.
The lug stamp isn't well defined, but it looks like the bottom half of a 3. I'll include a photo of it when I post pics and measurements tomorrow.
