Weight of a P226 Elite Login/Join

Was at the range comparing notes with another pistol shooter about the weights of our respective pistols, he was shooting a P320. He maintained that my Sig P226 Elite weighed 34 oz and to prove it looked it up on the Sig site. The Sig site states the P226 weighs 34 oz. He thereby “proved” to me I was wrong by maintaining the pistol weighs 34 oz as stated by Sig.I have weighed the gun on two different scales and have always come up with 32 oz. Does anyone else own a p226 that weighs 32 oz? No big thing but just curious why the difference. Good Shootin’ to ya’.

Is that DA/SA or SAO? I just went to weight my SAO but the kitchen scales have vanished.

Don’t have a 226 Elite, but this is what I found:
West German 226(folded slide/E2 grips)-31.4 oz w/ mag, 28.1oz w/o mag

P226 SAO(SS slide)-32.5 oz w/mag, 29.1 oz w/o mag

P226(40S&W,SS slide)- 32.3 oz w/ mag, 29.1 oz w/o mag

If he is quibbling over 2 oz, then his hand is calibrated much finer than mine!

Thanks for your input, seems all are around 32 oz. Just made me quarrelsome to listen to his constant "I know all"attitude. LOL Thanks again.
