I returned home today and was delighted to find that the William Ford had arrived.

Weight is 10.23 lbs. Barrels alone weigh 4.95 lbs and are extremely stout at the muzzles. By the way, the leather maker's case is really quite nice and is sized for 30" barrels. Based on that fact, and the appearance of the muzzles, I believe this is the original length.

Next step is to take this down to a local shop to have the barrel walls measured.

Again, thanks to all who have helped with information. I am grateful.

Chris
