Okay, imagine Andy Rooney's voice for the following rant:
"Do you ever notice that when you're looking for the weights of handguns online, all you can find are the empty weights? Why do I want to know what the weight of an empty firearm is? Do people go hunting with unloaded guns?
"Do people carry unloaded handguns for self-defense? In fact, sometimes they tell you the weight of the gun without the magazine. Do people carry handguns without the magazines in them?"
Okay, Andy Rooney voice off. Seriously, though. Why do they always have the weight of the gun unloaded or without the mag? I mean, don't people want to know the weight of a handgun that will be loaded because they will be carrying it loaded?
It just seems so incredibly stupid.
I'm trying to compare the weights between my CZ P-01 and H&K USP .45 full size for backpacking. The gun will be fully loaded (10 rd mag for the USP and 13 or 14 rd mag for the P-01).
I did find the weight of the fully loaded P-01. It is supposedly 33 oz. Any idea what the USP is?
