Heh, because whygo out without a few grenades... this must all be a fair amount of weight for him to carry too.

More than likely. But you have to think hikers carry up to thier own body weight in gear, soldiers are trained to carry their full gear, my friend to get his point across made my wear his gear for a quarter mile walk. Even without a weapon and ammunition the helmet, vest, etc etc is pretty heavy.

I'm going out on a limb and saying that since I've modeled a crap load of stuff for my sona that he can carry it. Besides, as he keeps going he'll use up grenades and ammunition and that'd slowly lighten his load.

True, though that load-lightening is itself a double-edged sword...

his vest has atleast 2 spare magazines for the Garganta and Bullpup lite, his belt holds about 12 spare shotgun shells, the leg holsters for the Sentinels have two pare mags as well, and the underarm holster for the 45 super wasp has an underarm mag holster for atleast 2 spare magazines.

Granted he is equiped for a sorta direct combat roll with the machine pistols, assault rifle/shotgun and pistol he'd likely take the chance to pick of choice targets from a distance with the Garganta, be it armored vehicles or personell. The fewer guns pointing at him as he enters the area means the less rounds he has to expend while there. Plus given how I always have portrayed, when clothed, Zeke wearing Cargo's he has plenty of room to store spare ammunition, as well as maps, flash lights, flares, etc etc.

Granted he is weighed down, he would likely have trained with his gear on, or trained with a weight equal to the weight of his full gear. Only down side is I don't depict him as 'muscular'. >_>

Mmm, a slight conflict then...

I have seen people that don't look muscular but can lift and carry thier own weight. Old Zeke could possibly be the same. *shrug*
