Too the practiced eye, does the wall thickness at the breech end look a little thick for a 1 frame 16?

I forgot to annotate the image, those are 20ga 0 and 2 frame for reference. I didn't have a 16 1 frame breech handy but the Trojan seems to lean more towards the 2 frame twenty in wall thickness.

I have owned two 32" #2 frame 20s and they both weighed right at 8 pounds. However, my 28" #3 frame 16 weighs about 9 pounds.

Well, thankfully no one ever sanded off all the "original laquer" finish...!

Does the thickness at the breech have anything to do with the length of the barrels?

The 2 frame does have ejectors and it is a GHE 30" Prince of Wales.

But the 0 frame 20 with 30" Dam 4 tubes is a magic wand. I gave it to my special snowflake for turning 21.
