[Fallout]

I've found pistols fairly disappointing overall. The P-5 was amongst the hardest hitters in the lvl 50 range but was also very erratic.

The Tifanni HVP as far as I`m concerned is basically an SB-1 with a higher cost and stat requirements. It rarely gets over 1000 damage in combat never mind the 1400+ other weapons provide. I'm pushing 12 ranks in pistol skill and don't even have a hit in the top 100.

If all the filler weapons were available when skills first arrived I would have chosen rifle.
