#Switching to pistols should be much faster

💡 What is motivating this suggestion?

Sidearms aren't really that useful, beyond being used as a primary in a rat run or killing ai's to save ammo. It takes too long to switch to your pistol, so in pretty much most cases your better off reloading mid gun fight

💡 What is your proposal?
Make pistols useful! dramatically lower the time it takes to pull out the sidearm so it can be used as a crutch weapon when you are caught needing to reload

💡 Exactly and specifically, what should be changed and how?
I think this should only be applied to pistols, because obviously being able to quickly switch to the sawed off shotgun will be overpowered.

So for 1911s, luger etc i would make it take half as long to switch to them than it currently is, so that switching to your sidearm mid fight is somewhat viable

Yeah I never understood why I have to go through the animation of racking the slide back every time I switch to a pistol. I should really only have to do that once and every other time should be faster

What about the feature MW2 uses where you switch to your sidearm faster by keeping your main weapon holstered?

yea i was just in a gunfight and lost because I thought pulling a pistol out could keep me in the fight. its a pistol not an lmg. I never understand why reloading takes so long in the first place in games. and pulling a gun out should be faster then that. your life depends on these things sometimes. if your putting your life on the line then why do you do them like your at the shooting range shooting targets for fun.
