I have been taking a few pistols/revolvers out of the safe each day to wipe down-lubricate as needed. Took out my 1943 Ithaca 1911a1 today and realized it is quite heavy. Decided to check the weight of it vs my 1985 Beretta 92f. Weighed both on a kitchen scale with full magazines (7 rounds of 45 acp for the Ithaca and 15 rounds of 9mm for the Beretta).

1911a1 weighs 2lbs,13 1/4 oz
Beretta 92f weighs 2lbs 8 5/8 oz

Curious how those would compare to the new Sig Sauer military pistol?

They weigh anywhere from approximately 29 ounces to 32 ounces unloaded. The heaviest is a commemorative model of some kind and it's not polymer like the rest of the models. That's what my quick 5 minutes of research says, anyway.
