Damn pistols not getting buffed :(

['Rooster' / Freddy Smith]

(this is not a suggestion so please do not delete and suggest I post a suggestion, my suggestion already got denied but I am purely after the thoughts of the community here!)

So i made a suggestion about buffing pistols but a dev instantly denied it before the community could view it, so I thought i'd make this to see what people think.

What does the community think about these ideas?:

1) Being able to run while aiming with a pistol (to make pistols more useful rather than pistols never being used as a primary weapon)
2) buffing pistols in general
3) seeing more pistol users in-game? like an agent using a pistol to quickly manuever around a room aiming faster than a heavy rifle holder?

would like to hear some thoughts from you guys since my suggestion got insta denied before anyone could view it.

Thanks

This is neither a + or - support as I can see why it was denied last time.
Pistols in game averagely have a damage between 35-49 so it is a 3 shot.
Pistols in any sense what so ever should not be able to go against a heavy rifle in a 1v1 situation as your comparing a 9mm or a 45acp against 7.62mm or 5.56mm, that comparison is completely unreasonable, Pistols in game are for back up if you run out of ammo or to go completely silent as silenced Pistols don't make much sound at all.

Plus the dev time to add aiming while running would be quite long and not a priority at all as we have bigger issues atm.
