Here are the numbers

Grade 0 #55437

Weight - 6lb, 8oz (matches the research letter)

Weight with fitted Briley 28ga tubes installed - 7lb, 3oz

Unstruck weight on barrel flats - 3lb, 7oz

Actual weight of barrels & forend - 3lb, 5oz

Grade 2 #55427

Weight - 7lb, 2oz

Unstruck weight on barrel flats - 3lb, 12oz

Actual weight of barrels & forend 3lb, 11oz

So ten ounces difference between the two guns. Interestingly my #1 frame 0 grade 12ga toplever gun weighs 6lb,11oz. Three ounces less than the 0 frame grade 2 16ga! The LOP is only 13.25" so with a slip-on recoil pad it comes in even. So with the tubes installed in 55437 only one ounce difference between the three guns. Total hammer gun interchangability!
