The pistol in halo is the -blam!-est weapon ever. It's to good because it's super acurate and can kill in 3 hits. When the assualt rifle take about 30 shots to down some one. I dont care if the pistol calibur is bigger because in real life a .22 can kill you in one hit and so can a .50 cal. Really the pistol should be the worst weapon because really all the other guns in halo are better in reality and covenant have better technolgy so there guns should be better too.

Sometimes it gets annoying being popped from across the map by the pistol, but I would like to see it return to tuned down a little, maybe 5 shots to kill someone with every shot hitting in the head.

Ross K you seem to forget this is not only a video game, which is not real life, but you are a super soldier not only with shields but freaking body armor up the wa'zoo. ALso it takes 22 MA5B bullets to kill the Chief, not 30 =)

um well the pistol is the like the best i love that gun and the shotgun one hit kill with that and so what an ar can kill someone quick up close and that what it used for the sniper rifle kills in 2 unless a head shot and covent weapons are good when they hit they stun the target and they can't turn that well it makes cirlcing them a lot easyier so yeah but still the pistol is that greatest along with the shotgun in sniper rifle

I would like it to return also but not as a first choice weapon. It should be like a secondary weapon in rainbow six. A good gun at close range to finish off some one when u have to reload in your big weapon

22 bullets who cares thats still 7 times more powerful. I just dont think it should be a sniper weapon it should be more like a real pistol,a side arm.

well as far as balancing works, I'd much rather any scoped weapon that doesn't leave a smoke trail like the Rocket launcher, or sniper rifle to take as many head shots to kill as a plasma rifle takes to kill at point blank range. It just makes more sense for a ranged weapon to be much less effective than say the shotgun, smg, plasma rifle at their ideal close ranges.

Ross, if the pistol is such a powerful weapon, why don't you use it? You seem upset that other folks know how to use a weapon that you don't.

Pistol owns all. You dont like it, then you just go -blam!- yourself.

I dont think shotgun that good because u cant hurt anyone outside of 10 feet. Also if a guy has a pistol and another has sniper whos going win the pistol guy because sniper tries to zoom in and make aim and bam bam bam out of zoom.then one more shot to the head and dead.

Well im the best player out my friends and I dont like use the pistol its to easy. The time usally use the pistol is if there is a tank that is camping and getting on my nerves. Also the only reason everyone likes the pistol so much is they kill people who can't do anything about really. Because after you feel those first 2 hits you no your gone.

I dont think it's a matter of People not liking the pistol, I mean how could you not like it and all of it's power? I think the primary concern is because the pistol is such a power house of a weapon it detracts from the other weapons in halo. Where as weapon choise in halo is supposed to be strategic considering you only have 2 weapons that you can carry at a given time. So it doesn't make sense to have a weapon that is extremely powerful in all situations.

shotgun owns man, hand-down, and it's more like 30 feet, I think you guessaments are a little off, once I killed 3 pistol people in 10 seconds with my trusty shotgun, well that's my opinion and If you don't like it, sick with the wrong one.
