What’s the heaviest handgun you own?

Pretty sure it's my P320, though the boat anchor that is my S&W 36 is probably 2nd.

Probably my Beretta 92FS Inox.

Very close. Within an ounce, I believe. A PC Smith 627. Followed by a Smith 617 6".

I think the 627 is, surprisingly, an ounce lighter, but it feels heavier, but that's probably the weight distribution from a heavier frame and shorter barrel.

Not counting AR’s, my GP100 takes the prize.

Since my XP100 is a stretch, my scoped 689 357Mag takes honors here as my heaviest handgun.

Per stats

S&W 27 6" barrel 44 oz
SIG P226ST with Mag 42.2 oz
S&W 659 with Mag 39.5 oz

They way they feel in hand I would rank them as 659, 27, P226ST. Something about the 659 makes it feel heavier.

My uncle's old 8" Smith 29 .44 is lying around here somewhere, I think. I don't know how heavy that is.

Just checked Ruger's website and it says it's 44oz/2.75 pounds.
What's odd is that it lists the 44 mag version 1 oz heavier for some reason.

The 454 requires longer chambers which removes some metal making it a bit lighter than one in .44

Super Redhawk 7.5" barrel .44mag- 53oz [3lbs 5oz].

I appreciate the weight when comparing to the Super Blackhawk in 5.5" barrel in .44mag- 45oz [2lbs 13oz].

Both the Sig P226 X6 and P220 X-6 are likely my heaviest. Haven't weighed them, but that 6" barrel and all stainless weighs it down.
