text "out 0, in 1" appears in the weapon box if you try it, looks like someone meant that to have a function of some sort...

Telok:
It has something to do with the inventory code. If you open up the soldier inventory window it's the same "out 0, in 1" on the weapon hand. That HUD is probably just linking the weapon image directly to the inventory and the weapon image acts like the inventory.

homunculus:
the weapon in hud-s is container, just like the weapon hand in the inventory screen.
just the hud designer did not make the container a ghost (ignores mouse gestures).
this is not really a flaw, as you cannot drop it anywhere else than the hand in battlescape anyway (though maybe you can put it in the other hand if it is not a two-handed weapon).

*cough* there is a user mod hud that lets the drag do something useful in battlescape (no throwing by dragging, though, throwing is one of the actions (listed among firemodes) that you can do with only some items like medkits and ir-goggles).

kurja:
medkits, and ir goggles of all things are throwable?  :o

Medikits are no longer throwable in 2.5, oh and don't forget grenades and knives, they are throwable - throwing things is actually a firemode, using the same mechanics than throwing grenades/knives.
