Pistols in the primary slot would be similar to those in the secondary slot, except obviously they'd be more powerful.
An example would be adding the Pit Viper into the primary slot of assault, medic, and engineer.
It would be semi-auto, Have a 21 round magazine, and at base would have 5 mags (they get bonuses from chest armor).
It would deal 45 damage, a rate of fire of 500 rpm, and reload in 2.4 seconds. It would have the movement speed of an smg (mp5) or a carbine (m4) if this is already busted.
Taking a primary pistol would remove any weapons in the secondary slot, because it'd be weird to have 2 pistols without dual wielding.
This is for the people that want to run around with a pistol john wicking people
Remember to compare this to other primary weapons.

honestly sounds fun but would people autoclicking with it just make it a better dmr?

Plus, recoil
Maybe it would have 400/450 velocity

all the DMRs have proper velocity. why can't all the guns just do that.

Standard pistol velo would work fine

#

maybe instead of a primary pistol just add more pistols to each class

#

and make pistols great again!

I'd rather see the pistols rebalanced for better DPS and more optimized for their role as very short range hipfire weapons, than make a primary category.

i agree, but i feel the point should be "conversion kits" for primary pistols. turning the heavies into hard counters for snipers, turning auto pistols into hard counters for movement and giving more options (like the basis for the Robocop gun), and just buffing falloff and accuracy of normal pistols

#

or it could be baller as hell if the glock could get the "corner gun" chassis to make it about firing from safety with a long mag, but removing equip speed bonus

Hmm. Would have to get proper stats on it to be sure but it sounds decently balanced. But the concept of a pistol being so potent is weird to me.

they have cyclic rates, what they are for each pistol I have no idea.

bumping does nothing <3 but good idea, would love to have pistol primary, and nothing as a secondary, or 2 pistols primary/secondary? Glock, and another glock 6_cool_flushed
