Yes, the dimension given at 9 7/8 is from the flange of the head to the other end. Overall it is 10.62 after March of 1948 and was a sixteenth longer (10.68) for a while in early '48 (released in 1/47). How many were made in that time is unknown. There is a section of 1 inch diameter right up near the flange. It was originally cadmium plated or zinc, and after 1/48 cad spec was removed.
