Anyone have a idea how much a standard 9MM Luger with a full mag and a 6" bbl would weigh?

Depends on what pistol design you're talking about. A full-size 1911 weighs about 39oz.

16 rounds of 124gr 9x19mm cartridges weigh about 7oz total.

Sorry if I was unclear in my inital question. I'm asking about a "Luger" as in a Luger designed military pistol.
Not a 1911 chambered to fire a 9x19 round.
Thank you for the response though.

The P08 pistole (Army version) has a barrel length of 4". If I can find the weight in one of my Luger books at home I will post. The Navy version had a 6" barrel.

The Luger is normally listed as weighing 32 ounces, probably for the 4" P '08, probably empty. Doubt two inches of that skinny barrel would add more than an ounce or two, 3 1/2 - 4 ounces for eight rounds of 9mm depending on bullet weight, I would say 37 -38 ounces.
