Pistol definitely. I can pretty much take on 7-8 enemies with various skills at once with my trusty M6D Pistol, and a few magazines of .50 cal explosive pistol rounds. An I am not exaggerating, I encounter this kind of daredevil moment almost every time I play.
Sniper comes in second; just like dbzprogrammar said, it has only 4 bullets in one clip, and as a slow rate of fire. But yes, it is a precision fire weapon, which makes it very deadly in good hands. I've been getting quite good with this weapon myself lately, I headshotted a gunner in a warthog going at 55mph from half a map away two days ago. =D
Third...will have to be the LAAG Machine Gun. (Does it count as a weapon? It should.) Good firepower, good rate of fire, good accuracy for a machine gun (unlike the M249 Support Machine-Gun in CS, which makes makes a pistol look accurate), and a nice soothing sound. Works well on aircrafts and land-vehicles, and works extremely well on advancing infantry units. If you are the only one in the warthog, manning this machine gun, it can be a good supressing fire weapon, and help pin down the enemy for your advancing teammates.
