There it is! the stock is serial numbered 16022 and even marked 4! As for the weight, as stated it is 10 lbs with only 28" barrels, widest part of the barrels across the breech measures 2 5/8", and 2 3/4" across the breech balls. Wall thickness is approx. 5/16". Could this be the very first Quality 4 made? I saw a pole somewhere on Smiths and the earliest 4 I saw was in the 164XX range, all the early ones around this number were wither 2 or 3.
