My experience with the crunchen-ticker DA first shot to the subsequent SA transition was exaggerated. It typically meant the DA length of pull was too long or the shooter didn't develop DA shooting technique.

2 lb 6.3 oz ... but with a full mag of 14 you get the awful heavy weight of 2 lb 7oz

Of course the exact weight of a loaded ctg depends on bullet weight, charge, and brass thickness, but using numbers a quick search turned up , 14rds are in the neighborhood of 5-6 oz , giving loaded weight of +/- 2ib 12oz .
? Which gun with how many in the mag is 2lb 12oz?

Refering to BHP loaded weight guesstimate in post #82 , which in turn was was refering back to posts #77 &79 .
I didn't actually weigh a BHP on this thread , but weight difference of 0.7oz for 14rds cought my eye, so I googled up a quote of 9mm wt per 100rd, and applied calculator.
And for the underlying question, a fully loaded Hi Power is well balanced, and feels good in the hand.

Post 77 asked for the weight loaded with 12 rounds, so that is what I provided first; 2 6.3 loaded with 12 rounds - then I added 2 rounds to the mag to weigh again at full capacity of the common MecGars 2lb 7oz. No guestimation, weight on the scale.

My bad, I read that as unloaded weight.
