Sure, it has happened. But as Sax and a few others have said. It is really a last resort.
Pistol is weak and has the worst aim.

It was better a few patches back. But then again, I think I remeber me thinking in those days that it was over-powerfull hehe.

Maybe we can land somewhere inbetween in the future. =)

As I play as SL quite a lot, I've probably sent you to your death, rather than save you. lol

@pistol: The most fun I've had though is playing BLUFOR in insurgency with pilot kit.

Suggestion for 1.0: Throwing Helmet at enemy is Alternate Melee Option. Also, after the last round of your last mag, you can throw your pistol at your enemy too.
This happens everytime! :mrgreen:

I'm a squad leader. My squad members are my weapon. If I use any of my weapons I view it as a failure.

I'm pretty sure that's the most retarded thing I've read today.

It's OK to stay at the back, but to not fire...... I don't even..

Did your sidearm saved your life in Brecourt Assault during the event? :)

For me it happened quite sometimes while defending Brecourt.

Never actually used it in combat, but I did fire the Colt a couple of times and I really love the kick and sound of it.

Only Real Men disregard the primary in favor of the mighty M9 sidearm of badassery & blood lust.

I concur.

Why would you be issued a weapon if you're not meant to use it anyway?

I remembered this thread and tried switching to the sidearm last night, should have just carried on running away..

.. Mind you that's usually a good idea anyway if you need to reload!

It has failed me/I have failed every time with the side arm as a defensive weapon. I've only ever killed a couple of snipers, and even then they drew for the 9 and made me bleed! I used to pwn, but now im fail-sauce with it. Alas.
