that's what I figured, it looks like it would add 3 ounces to the cues weight. might make a good break cue. if it wasn't for that pin ide buy it. that's a rare looking joss, never seen one, not even in their retired catalougues

Why not message the seller and ask how it ended up with that pin? They would have to have modified the shaft for this also, and not sure how well that would work, with how deep that pin goes the structure of the shaft must be weakened towards the bottom, would make it easier to crack there.
I looked at it again for you, and I'm about 75% sure I'm wrong about the noticeable weight (although your 3 ounce guess does seem correct). Those are a lot smaller than the pictures make them look, after really looking at it. I believe it does add more weight than normal, but by how much would depend on the preferred pin. Dunno... if you like it maybe get it anyways, at least you'd know if a binding barrel is a feasible option (although you could have it removed and have it filled).
