You have to add materials to the gun and mags to house those extra rounds. I want my carry gun as light and thin as possible.

That's quite surprising indeed. Also, the Shield 2.0 comes in at 18.3oz from what I just looked up...

At .99" for the 2.0 vs 1.1" for the Plus, I'd imagine they had to take some poly out of the mold, especially in the grip area, in order to account for a wider magazine, so that might explain the less weight for a higher capacity gun.
