For the QSO 3C 273 we derive, on the basis of two different theoretical models, expressions for a lower limit to the mass of the QSO, as a function of its distance. We conclude that an appreciable gravitational redshift component is consistent with the observational data only if the QSO mass is at least Galactic in magnitude. The setting of an independent upper limit to the QSO massM≲1010 M &sun; could indicate that the QSO redshift is predominantly cosmological in nature.
